The baby should have a darker skintone but they have a lighter skintone when they are in the crib. The icon shows a baby with a light skintone aswell. I looked at the gallery photo of the family, and the baby had a darker skintone. When she aged up to a toddler she had a darker skintone aswell.

@vaneijk4 Merging this with the skin tone issues thread than as it doesn't sound it's just an icon issue like this thread: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/For-Some-skin-tones-Baby-icon-different-color-than-Sim-Patch-1...

I’m having this issue on console (PS4) whenever my mixed couples have a baby, the babies ALWAYS default to the lighter skin tone and sometimes end up even lighter than their parents. It’s super frustrating

I've had this on console for over a year if memory serves me right. Defaults to much, much darker skintone than parents. It's not something that massively bothers me but just adding additional info. It started after adding Realm of Magic.

Medium dad and light mom had a dark baby in my game lol. One of my friends said all her babies are dark. My other friend said the scott’s from henford had a white baby.

@LyssSimpatico Is the baby dark in the crib or just the icon/household manager pic ? If you grow the baby up for testing, is it still dark ?

Good Luck

I'm going to archive this thread since skin tones and genetics got work with this patch.

If you still have issues, please create a new thread.
