Yeah, my blue-skinned alien baby appeared in icons as a black baby.  When she aged up to child, her RNG  disguise was an adorable black child, so I thought it was somehow her alien disguise coming through, LOL.  But no, a friend had the same thing happen with her purple alien twins and it bore no resemblance to their RNG alien disguises. 

 

Her father is white and Senior Pollination Technician #3 is blue in my game, Wink but it doesn't matter to me because he's a single Dad and I think people are going to assume he adopted.  I can see how other people might want the baby to look more like their bio parents, though.

@TheWitchySimmer It's the icons/household picures that are bugged. On your picture I can see that the babies are white in the crib so you have this issue which is why I merged your post with the existing bug report on it.

I have this issue in that only in the household family portrait in manage worlds are the babies black instead of white. Both parents are very pale (Asian skintones).

@lizzybea02 Is it just the icons or are the baby themselves the same color ?
