Allergies???

[Bluejeans]

One of my toddlers absolutely would not go to bed. She cried and got
back up immediately after putting her down, regardless of the fact
that she was bone tired.

I couldn't figure it out. There was nothing in the room to make her
wake back up (no radio, TV, etc.). Then I noticed in her queue that
there was a picture of her crib and a picture of her next to it. I
put the mouse over the picture of her and it said "Allergies!"

I have NEVER seen that before. When did that come about and what am
I supposed to do about it?

One of my Sims is a family Sim and could make Chicken Soup, except I
don't know how you would give it to a toddler.

That was just something brand new to me...after all this time! Anybody
else ever see this? Is it part of the game or it is perhaps a
"feature" of one of my hacks that I just didn't know about.

Oh well...who needs Sims 3? 2 is still surprising me.

Well, the allergies came with Seasons and sims usually get them in the
Spring. Adult sims sneeze. No idea what you do with toddlers. Did you try
cancelling out the action? Or maybe she just needs to get out of the crib
so she can sneeze? Otherwise, I have no idea how to fix it except maybe for
force error, reset.

This new one (Allergies) MUST have come with Free Time. To give a Toddler
some soup, I would guess that you would have to put her in the highchair,
then click the stove or fridge to get the option to make the soup, then
offer it to her. To offer it to her, I do not know if you would click the
large bowl, or the kid. This sounds neat; I wonder what other stuff Eaxis
is hiding on us?

After hitting send, I saw the other posts that said the allergies came with
Seasons. That makes sense, because some of my Sims have been sent home from
work with a bad cold, or the flue, even when no roaches were on the
property, and Those that spray the fruit trees and the garden start sneezing
a lot about four sprays before changing into PlantSims (I use that as a
warning, and buy a lot of LadyBug houses, unless I want a particular Sim to
morph). I have, however, never had any reference to allergies, which
shockes the heck out of me, because in RL, I suffer from numerous ones, and
the medications can sometimes constitute a meal!

If you put the toddler in the high chair before clicking the fridge and
choosing "Serve Dinner" then Comfort Soup, the sim doing the cooking
will automatically give some of it to the baby. I don't know if that
will help though. I've not ever had a toddler with allergies -- well,
in the game anyway.

reoccured. I tried taking her out of the crib and setting her down,
but she was so tired that she just cried and the bubble with the bed
appeared over her head. Then I thought some more about it...

What would I do with my own tot if he appeared to have allergies and
couldn't sleep (besides medicating). I gave her a bath and put her
back to bed...and she slept fine.

Ha! That was interesting and I loved the "challenge".

I didn't try the option to Serve Dinner / Chicken Soup because a) the
family didn't have a high chair and only had §8 in the bank, so they
couldn't buy one and b) the Family Sim was already in the bed asleep.

But I might try that next time...if it ever happens again. In all my
hours of playing, that's the first time I've seen allergies. I've
noticed my adults sniffling and sneezing on occassion, but never the
toddlers.
