I should also note there are graphical errors like the baby stretching like taffy when starting the read book animation, and some weird thing with the adults' arms when the baby is being passed from one to another. Animations went all over the place when multiple sims were trying to interact with the Infant, like when I tried to "Carry inside" but the Nanny I hired to introduce was trying to do other things at the same time. This seems like a faulty priority system. They were putting the baby down, picking up, arms stretching sideways. Very weird to witness.

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? Current with Infants
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All of them
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? It happens most of the time when my sim is Famous. However it happening even if my sim is not famous. You go for a science baby.
What happens when the bug occurs? When you com back. Sim and the newborn has no relationship. You can even build the relation with the newborn to 100. When you age up the newborn to infant, it say you have not been introduced to the infant. So the Sim cannot take care of the infant. Eventually the infant will be taken away if I do not get introduced
What do you expect to see? Famous(or not) Sim should have a relationship with the newborn when the newborn comes on the residential lot. So when newborn ages up into Infant, it
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? No
I am on a PC. My single male Sim was not introduced the infant. He is a single father with a science baby. Since the infant has not been introduced to his father, the baby will eventually be taken away. I had a famous married couple have a baby before and I had to reset the sims that aged up the baby to a toddler. This was an issue even yesterday. There was a work around so it was fine I just reset the adult sim that aged the baby, and introduced themselves to the toddler. After that everything was good. So that was a little frustrating but I moved on. This issue with infants has gone from a little frustrating to anger. with toddlers to angry that this issue has not been resolved. This issue been going on since get famous. So now, My Sim cannot take care of his infant son.

@crinrictthis happened when pre-patch newborns aged up as well as an already conceived pre-patch newborn aged up. I am now pregnant with a post-patch baby so we'll see what happens when that baby ages up.

@crinrictSo I have one adult and sometimes teens and children in the house at various times. The workaround right now is to either invite a nanny over to introduce me to my infant. Or, if I happen to have a teen in my household, they can also introduce me to the infant. The mother Sim is the only Sim who can't do anything with the infant until introduced.

Do they have the Beloved trait perhaps? With Toddlers there's a similar bug caused by this particular trait.

Yes, my Sim mother has the beloved trait.
