Sims 4 100 Baby Challenge Tips List
I was told I should make this like a year ago, but you know me, I’m lazy as heck lmao. So I’m making it now, my list of tips to play the 100 Baby challenge! Please note, this is mostly best on how I play. There might be more “optimal” ways to do things but I don’t know everything about this game lmao. It will also need updating when the High School Years pack and its base game update come out, I will do that after a little play time to get the hang of it.
I’ll divide this into sections, and I’ll do this under a cut because this might be a long one.
Also, if you can spare a reblog, I literally spent hours on this... 💗
First of all, I want to say that it all depends on the level of difficulty you want. I’ll try to give tips on the most optimal way to do things, and also if you’re like me and you like a challenge, how to make things a bit harder on yourself.
The Matriarch
Choosing your matriarch’s traits is important, of course, it’s the first decision you make when starting this challenge. The romantic trait is the most obvious choice, since it makes your sim flirty quite often, but to make things a bit harder, you can choose to skip it. For my 100BC matriarch Mavis, I chose perfectionist, because higher quality crafts means more money, and neat, because those Sims get positive moodlets while cleaning and your matriarch will do a LOT of cleaning. Finally, I couldn’t resist giving her the family oriented trait, another go-to. This one gives your Sim happy moodlets when they spend time with their family, which then again will happen a lot.
Choosing her aspiration is just as important: a Love aspiration gives her the alluring trait, which makes her more successful at romance, but it’s not the only option. A Family aspiration such as Big Happy Family or Superparent can be easy to complete without giving such a big advantage, and I also like the Creativity aspirations which depending on what skill you choose to make money with, can be a viable option. Don’t forget to change her aspiration once you’ve completed it!
Finally, rewards. First I always activate whims in the options, to get those extra satisfaction points, you can never have too much of those. For reward traits, I always get fertile first, for obvious reasons. Then I like to get steel bladder and seldom sleepy, because when pregnant your matriarch will need the bathroom all the damn time, and she will be tired a lot when she has three hungry toddlers running around in the middle of the night. I also get beguiling if I have the points for it, but to me it’s not the most important one to get. And depending on what skills your matriarch has maxed out, getting the mentor trait might be worth it. Your teens will get their painting level three in one painting with the matriarch mentoring them.
The House
In my research (yes I did some research!!!) I’ve seen tutorials that recommend living in a tiny house. Hummm… I’ve never tried it, so I can’t say it’s not viable, but your matriarch does need a double bed, and you’ll often have two toddlers and five kids/teens, sometimes three toddlers and four kids/teens. You need to be able to host all this little crowd. Of course, at first you don’t need a huge home because you start with only the matriarch. I usually start in a starter home with two bedrooms and one bathroom and I extend the house when babies start being born. For kids and teens, bunk beds are your best friends. Kids and teens can share a bedroom, but I like to keep my toddlers separated from them because toddlers have nightmares and when they do they WILL wake up everyone, so it’s better if you can catch them and cancel the interaction before they can get to the next person. Also, very important: have your toddler room, your toddler bathroom (with the tub and the potty) and your highchair if you use one (more on that later) on the same level! Toddlers at first can’t climb stairs and your matriarch has better things to do than to carry toddlers around. If you can’t do that though, just have your toddler practice their movement as soon as they age up until they get to level two so they can climb stairs. About bassinets, I usually put them in a hallway… I know it’s strange, but let me explain: babies when they cry wake up everyone toddler and up who might sleeping in the room they are in. And babies cry a lot. So I put them in a room where no one sleeps. Hence the hallway. Usually I choose one not too far from the matriarch’s bedroom.  
About bathrooms – yes I’m making that its own paragraph because the previous one is way too long: You need at least two. I’d advise you separate the toilet from the rest of the bathroom (is this called half-bathrooms? I think). You need a bathtub for toddlers, but for space purposes I usually use a bath-shower combo. If you’ve got two free tiles and you can squeeze an extra toilet in there, do it. Also restrict access to non household members to every bathroom and every toilet but one. That’ll avoid them breaking all your appliances. In my current gameplay, my matriarch has her own bathroom for those emergency bathroom breaks, the kids and teens share another bathroom designed so they can use the shower and toilets at the same time without seeing each other (yes, that’s possible too!) and the toddlers have a bathtub and potty room, and there is one extra guest toilet. It might seem like a lot, but it’s the first time none of my kids ever had an accident while waiting for a bathroom to become available. Speaking of appliances, you’ll wanna upgrade those as soon as you have the handiness level, the spare parts, and the free time to do so.
For lot traits, I think the lay lines lot trait is a must, but I only add it after the house is at its final size, when I can afford all those extra kids. Good schools is also important for kids to age up quickly. For the third one, it depends on what skills your matriarch is earning her money from, you might want one that makes her progress faster. Homey is a good option too, as it’ll help her get her cooking and handiness to max faster, and you will need both of those.
Getting Pregnant
Getting your first baby on the way should be easy. Usually there is at least one man in the welcoming wagon, and if not, grab the first townie walking by. I usually get the friendship bar a third of the way before I start flirting. Then I just use flirty interactions until the first kiss option shows up. If the sim react negatively to your flirting, just go back to friendly interactions until the conversation becomes friendly again, then try again with the flirting. You are going to need a lot of “victims” for this challenge, so I’d advise your matriarch introduce herself to every man she sees. Once they are in her relationships panel, she just has to call them when she has a little free time and chat them up. You can have her flirt with her next victim while being pregnant from the previous one, so when she gives birth she just has to call him over and try for a baby. Also, if you have MCCC on and your townies can breed on their own (or even with story progression now) you might want to be careful not to have kids with your matriarch’s cousin’s son as those don’t register as family in the game for some reason (this is more for gen 2 and up matriarchs, or if your first matriarch has family in the save).
Making Money
There is many ways for your matriarch to make money without working. The easiest ones are painting, writing books, and keeping a garden. Those aren’t exclusive, you can do all three! I like trying new ways to make money, though. I did woodcarving, flower arranging, fabricating, and cross stitching. All of those are viable. I don’t know about the other ones, but why not give it a try! And if you’re tight on money, send your kids and teens fishing or harvest collectibles after school! Also, if you have parenthood, the kids will receive birthday gifts for every birthday, and there will be MANY birthdays. Sell the gifts you don’t need and you might make a lot of money (especially the toys, toys are worth so much in this game). Same goes for school projects, if you have a lot of them, sell a few, they’re worth 100§ each.
Babies
Four words: ultra efficient baby care. You’ll want your matriarch to get her parenting skill to max to be able to use it, but that will come easily with all the parenting she’ll do. Fun fact, you can actually care for twins exclusively with ultra efficient baby care. As soon as the twins are born, use the baby care on one, and just feed the second. When the second baby cries for a diaper change, you should be able to reuse the baby care (if not just let him cry until you can...) so use it on the second baby. Then just alternate every time they cry. If you don’t have parenthood, just changing and feeding babies every time they cry (regardless of what they want) was how I used to do it when I didn’t have it.
Toddlers
Aaaah… Toddlers… You’re gonna hate them. My first advice is that if you use CC toddler beds, make sure they have energy 1. You want the little devils to spend as much time sleeping as possible. Also, don’t forget to check on their hunger level while they’re sleeping. As for feeding them, I personally use the high chair for realism reasons, but if this is your first 100BC and you’re not used to caring for multiple toddlers, I’d advise you skip it altogether and just drag food from your fridge onto the floor for toddlers to grab a serving from. If you do decide to play with highchairs, know that one highchair is enough to feed two toddlers, three if they don’t get hungry at the same time… If you have more toddlers, which happens, you might want to invest in more highchairs. Also, I always click the highchair to decide which child I feed and what I feed them. If you click the toddler, it doesn’t let them decide what you feed them, and sometimes you might want to avoid the sugar rush thing, or to the contrary provoke it. Also, it might seem awful but my toddlers’ hygiene and attention levels are almost always in the red. They won’t get taken away for that, so don’t worry about it!
Now onto toddler skills. Let’s start with potty. Did you know that when a toddler watches another toddler who’s on the potty, he gains potty skill too? Yep. Use that in order for them to reach level two without your matriarch spending hours potty training. Also independent toddlers don’t need to be trained by an adult at all. For communication, that’s the easiest, just spam talk to the giant plushie. For creativity any toy from the toy box does the job. We’re left with the hardest two, for me at least. Movement can be done with the construction cubes. Thinking too, but only from level two, so to get there, I use the tablet. In general, I use the tablet a lot when I have two/three toddlers and only one set of cubes, but for extra challenge you can try to have your toddlers reach their skills without using the tablet at all. For that, have the matriarch or a teen do flashcards with them for the thinking skill, or just do a lot of “what is this” interactions with the toddler if thee are no grown ups available.
Children
Children need a skill level 4 to get their grades to an A. The easiest way to get that is via the social skill. Just have the kids chat between themselves, or with a random person in the street, and once they unlock the “talk about school day” interaction just alternate that with any other friendly interaction (so that the person they’re talking to doesn’t get bored) and the level ups will start raining… so much so that if you have time, you can easily get your kids to level 10 to then have them work on their charisma or mischief for the teen skill… Also to anticipate for the teen skills, here are a list of skills children can start learning and keep when they become teens (according to the wiki, I haven’t tried them all): fishing, photography (though I don’t recommend this one as it takes forever to level up), bowling, pet training (though that requires having a pet which takes a slot in the household, so I don’t recommend it either), robotics, skiing, snowboarding, knitting, medium and cross-stitch.
If you have Parenthood, you have access to school projects. I only do those when kids are C or teens are B and just aged up. They aren’t mandatory but they help progress the grades while also upping the skills. I never buy them though, that’s wasted money. I keep the ones the kids come home with on Mondays and just use those when I want to.
Teens
I won’t develop this too much because it might all change with the upcoming pack. I just wanted to say that it might be a fun little challenge to try to do all the skills in the game as your level three skills for your teens! Also, don’t hesitate to use your tees to take care of the toddlers when they’re not at school. Your matriarch needs all the help she can get.
Making It Fun!
People sometimes tell me they get bored playing the 100BC, and I can understand why. It’s a very repetitive challenge where sims come and go out of your house like in a baby making factory. So here is my advice on how to keep it fun. First, do things. On the weekend with the whole family, or during school days with your matriarch alone, do stuff. Go visit the older kids that moved out of the house, go on a ski trip, go to the bar to hunt for new victims, go to a festival (to hunt for new victims…), just do stuff! You don’t have to be locked inside that house with your matriarch 24/7! Secondly, you don’t have to only play for the performance. If you want to sacrifice a slot in your household for a pet, do it. If you like one of the kids and want to keep them around longer, do it. If one of your teens aged up but you want to help them find love before they move out, do it! It doesn’t have to always be about the matriarch! In my first 100BC, my third matriarch had a twin brother. I decided to keep him around to help with the toddlers. He later was abducted by aliens and had an alien daughter. I decided to keep her around too! And those were some of my favorite sims to play with ever.
There you go!
I didn’t expect this to be this long lmao! I was planning on doing a bullet list and it turned into this… Thanks to those of you who read though it all and if you’ve got tips of your own don’t hesitate to add them in a reblog or a comment!

I really like the Monsters x reader story. Imagine if Reader got preggers and didn't know who the dad is. That would be one very intense fight amongst everyone.
I suppose it would be rather easy to figure out the paternity once the child is born. If it’s half lizard, for example, it might be safe to assume the many-eyed screeching creature wasn’t involved in its creation.
During pregnancy it could be once again the time for the mayor or Monstertown to interfere and keep Reader away (they have no idea how fragile humans are so they’d rather not risk stressing it out). To maintain the peace he might even turn it into some sort Olympic event, where only a handful of monsters that make it to the finals have a chance to impregnate the Reader as well. I won’t go into detail because I have another ask about a motherly Reader that triggers the monsters’ breeding instincts 👀

eddie and venom playing videogames together would be so funny, i think
like i imagine if they play something like the Sims, Eddie is doing your typical "Make the sim as ugly as possible because it's funny" bit. just hideously weird looking with bright pink skin and pieces of the face clipping through each other because he's stretched it so much. he names them Shit Fart.
meanwhile Venom would be working so hard to make as close to a replica of Eddie as possible. Venom has downloaded twenty five mods to allow for larger lips and more tattoos. Venom's got so much custom content in the game to give Sim Eddie the best outfits. Venom buys Sim Eddie the nicest things in the game. Eddie's house is perfect.
Eddie sets his own sim on fire.

Amy's Sims: Remade 10 Years Later! These sims were all originally made by me in the span of 2013-2014.* I think my old simblr is both cute and cringey, but my very limited use of the same 3 facial presets and barely changing them is definitely more on the embarrassing side. Here's Mallory Jones (the mom in my 100 baby challenge), David "Goose" Baroque (one of the 60-something babies), Rachael Williams (spouse of my founder in the Elmore legacy), some guy (he was a baby daddy in the 100BC), Samantha Maldonado (spouse of one of the 60-something babies), and Bryce Calvert (made for a bachelorette challenge). * Mallory's hair and eye color were taken from a sim in The Danevbie Legacy (I was obsessed with this story! <3). Also, Goose was born in-game and his dad was made by @simmonium.

Hi guys!
New simblr here! My names Char. I’m a mum to 4, and from Australia 🇦🇺
I’m a long time simmer, have been playing sims 2 days. I’m new to the story / show & tell side of things.
Currently I’m doing 2 challenges, and most likely do more;
100 berry sweet baby challenge (with Lucy & Dean)
Rags to riches (with London)
I’m still learning the sims 4 side of things, as I mostly played the sims 3 in the past.
I will greatly appreciate reblog and follow 🩷
I would love to interact and be friends with other amazing simmers!

Ace's Forest Hideaway (no CC, all the packs before Growing Together)
I'm not a builder (it takes too much time), but this lot has been built from scratch and thoroughly play-tested, as you may have seen if you followed the gameplay. My alien will move soon, so I decided to share his first house.
The first floor suits well enough to raise a bunch of children simultaneously. The stairs are toddler-proof. And there are "guest rooms" for future bearers and a secret lab.
Lot size 40x30

More previews are under the cut.

Я не строитель (слишком много времен занимает), но этот дом построился с нуля и был тщательно протестирован в игре, как вы наверное видели, если следили за этим геймплеем. Мой пришелец скоро переезжает в дом побольше, так что я решила этот выгрузить на скачку, вдруг кому-то он приглянулся.
Первый этаж вполне себе подходит, чтобы растить кучку детей одновременно. Ступеньки заблокированы для тодлеров. А в подвале есть "номера" для носителей будущий детей и тайная лаборатория.
Больше скринов под катом.

I honestly think we've reached absolute Pit Social Media when the images of deceased infants get meme-ed around because "lololol IT looks so stupid IT looks so fake IT is obviously a doll haha let's have some fun here hahaha". And they know dead bodies only from how they're made to look in movies OR maybe open-casket funerals where a mortician worked their ass off for the family to have a pretty corpse to say their goodbyes to.
I. Honestly.
I can't even wrap my mind around how devoid of humanity some people are. All of this has really opened my eyes about the people around me.
Tell them - and they don't even know what death looks like - that a real human person in distress is "actually an actor/a prop/a doll" and they're meme-ing the shit out of anh atrocity.
That's how corpses become internet fun memes. A big party for everyone. Because we're upholding CiViLiSaTiOn here and sHoWiNg ThEm TeRroRiStS.
As a kid, I was stupid enough to ask myself, how could anyone stand by when the Holocaust happen.
Now I know the people around us wouldn't only stand by, they would cheerfully join in AND make socmed memes about it. Because "hahaha those aren't real people, it's all a big movie stage - and if they were real, they'd DESERVE it".
I can't go back to seeing people like I did before.
