Besides the standard personality traits, young Sims can develop unique attributes that can sometimes appear after achieving a milestone. These characteristics can affect their lifestyle, causing them to react differently to each activity, such as sleeping, eating, and even going to the bathroom. Here’s everything you need to know about all the infant quirks in The Sims 4: Growing Together.
What Are All the Infant Quirks in The Sims 4: Growing Together? Answered
Infant quirks can be unlocked naturally as you progress further in gameplay and vary based on a Sim’s personality. However, a few traits can only be acquired once they move around or eat from their high chair. So, if you want to know what to expect, here’s a list of all infant quirks in Growing Together:

Various infant quirks can make parenting relatively tricky, including the ‘Hates Wakeup Time’ and ‘Free-Air Tinkler’ attributes. But, as long as you consistently take care of them, any bad moods can be remedied over time, and it can help you gain a good Reward trait that can affect their Toddler life stage. In particular, good parenting results in the Top-Notch characteristic, while Unhappy Infant occurs when not properly taken care of.
Sometimes, the “negative” quirks will happen automatically, despite nurturing an infant consistently. However, it doesn’t necessarily mean they are unhealthy, and it’s more to do with their unique personality types. Furthermore, these attributes will not carry over once they age and will only affect their interactions during this particular life stage.
