Question about sexout offspring

[Tattman]

Can someone clarify the offspring growth process please? My character has had a baby. It can be worn as a backpack bundle, or can be dropped out somewhere like decor, or simply kept in my inventory or storage, or even sold, I do understand that much. My question is, is there something I need to do to make it grow? I have kept it worn as backpack, or in my inventory, and it seems like it has not changed at all. Same weight, visually same size. I know there is a growth slider in MCM, but have not wanted to needlessly mess with settings. I'm just a little confused on this aspect as I am not using any of the breeder mods to find out that way.

for human baby, with default settings of 50%, it will take about 140 in-game days to grow, size/weight of the baby item won't change at all, but size of the offspring past the baby stage does change overtime

okay, awesome. So, patience lol. Thank you for the info. I had tried the sexout system a couple of months ago, and when I got to Vegas from DC, I popped up with several babies in my inventory. I didn't know what to do with them, so I put them in storage. I got a message that they had "hatched", and when I went back to see what was going on, they wee walking around. A small ant, and a baby Mr Handy. That was before I got the error issues and load order fixed though, so I wanted to clarify before going much further. Thanks again!
