The one where I SUDDENLY REMEMBER WHY I'VE NEVER COMPLETED THIS CHALLENGE | 100 Baby 24 Challenge #4

Join me as I attempt The Sims 4 100 baby challenge - again! For the 4th time! When the infant update dropped in 2023, I stopped actively playing the game and spent a year downloading and organizing my custom content folders. But now I'm determined to finally conquer this challenge and my fear (??) of infants, so I've decided to switch it up a bit and make it WORK for me - aka make it interesting so I don't get bored again. My rules?
1. Each matriarch only has 10 children, but they also have an additional challenge to grapple with. The first gen is dealing with the official 24 While 24 Challenge. The future gens... we'll figure out as we go along!
2. Mostly following the original 100 Baby Challenge rules, but I've made a few changes to keep my sanity. Primarily, I'm keeping all my mods - this game isn't worth playing without them. Trust me though, this isn't making things easier. In fact, it's making it harder in some ways. I'm also not adhering to the infant rule changes - going my own way and just getting 3 milestones in each category.
3. Having fun! The reason I've never finished this challenge is because of how repetitive it can get, so I reserve the right to switch things up if I start getting bored.

The one where I suddenly remember why I've never completed this challenge... But even worse, because infants are a new level of terrible. Maxis, we didn't need that update. I know folks were saying they're necessary to the game, but we already had two baby life-states - we didn't need another one, I'm telling you. If the choice was between cars or babies, I'd choose babies any time. Though I'd prefer bug fixes and a working Dine Out before either.
This took FOREVER to record - there were about two hours of troubleshooting trying to figure out the glitch I was dealing with where the infants weren't able to do the "play with toys/look at toys" interactions. Finally went away for good when I took my entire build/buy folder out - which is fine, I don't have much CC for that anymore. Was much more sad when I thought it was the infant skin details - I can't play without skin details!
Full disclosure, the toddlers and infants in the thumbnail were cas-ified post-recording so their first appearance with their makeovers is in the next one. I had to go on a toddler/infant alpha hair haul, and let me tell you - there isn't much out there. But I did find a fabulous curly hair for Augustine (blonde toddler, top middle) that was perfect for what I wanted. It's here if you want to pick it up (toxxicsims.tumblr.com/post/71...) and the blog has lots of other conversions as well!
