Modding Diary- vote for what you want to see in the next update (Patreon)

Hi guys! I have a poll for you this week to vote for what you want to see in the next update.
If you are having issues with crashing while your sim is at the hospital, make sure you have the newest version(v1.372), if the issue continues even with the newest versionplease join my discord https://discord.gg/G3QJCzhR and send me a message so that we can look into it together.
Last week I shared a few ideas on what I could work on next and asked you guys to add suggestions for anything else you might want to see.
Milk pumping and nursing seems to be one of the most popular idea so I started working on it this week. It looks like EA will be adding nursing for the baby patch, so I will be focusing on milk pumping until the patch comes.
I was able to create the breast pump as well as the baby bottle
the idea is your sim will be able to use the breast pump and if they have no issues lactating, they will get a bottle of milk
which they can put in the fridge or feed it to the baby.
I spent a ridiculous amount of time trying to find a vfx that looks like the milk is going into the bottle, but sadly I was not able to find anything that looked good.😥
most of the vfx (like this one)are wayyyy to big for the pump😳
Next week I will start on the animation which I am very excited about
now lets talk about the poll
many of you have suggested more pregnancy complications, postpartum care, or pregnancy cravings, but things like that already exist in Relationship&Pregnancy Overhaul or Healthcare Redux , if you haven't used these mods yet you need to check them out! Both are created by very talented and dedicated modders. I try to avoid overlapping with other mods, because I much rather spend time working on something that hasnt been done yet.😉
you will notice there an an extra options that I did no include in my post last week.
I have been getting alot of requests to add a percent chance of stillborn for a long time ._. I've never really considered it because its pretty grim, but I keep getting suggested so I added it to this poll. When I play the sims I never want anything bad to happen to my sims but I understand many of you want tragedies to be part of your storytelling. If I do make it it will have to be a separate download to ensure this feature will only be a available to those who want in their game.
If you have any other suggestions, please leave a a comment. As an animator my biggest passion is animation, Im more likely to do a good job for features that heavily relies on animations, compare to something that heavily relies on moodlets.
