I just had an infant age to toddler and her "learn to crawl" infant milestone won't stop acting as if it's brand new and it's annoying. No matter how many times I view it and un-star it, it goes back to starred.

@UigennaI've got something similar, except for me it's Pulled to Stand. It's a somewhat minor glitch overall, but still annoying.

I found a solution that works for me, but it does involve a mod. You need the "Milestone Cheats" mod by Lumpinou, that adds/removes milestones for any age. I removed the Pulled to Stand milestone, then re-added it. And made sure to check the milestones panel. Now everything seems fine, I don't constantly get the "new milestone" thing on the Simology panel.

Thank you so much for this! I've had this bug happen twice before and it was very annoying. Using this mod and removing the offending milestone fixed it immediately! I can't thank you enough, I thought my save was corrupted!

I can confirm that this bug is probably triggered by failing to open the detailed milestones panel before a sim ages up to toddler. I have that with stuck milestones on my sim now.

It seems that if a Sim (any Sim of any age) ages up to another Milestone age group, all milestones that were still considered newly acquired (the ones you haven't specifically viewed after acquiring) will forever be considered new. For some reason toggling the "new/viewed" doesn't save from any of the previous Milestone age group tabs, they save only for the tab your Sim is currently on. Am I making any sense with this rambling?
