2023-08-01: added an infant animation I'd missed, as well as the No Looping Sounds variant

I know I'm not the only one who's been either muting the game whenever babies start crying or just aging them up as quickly as possible. Here's a mod to finally silence those screaming babies so we can play in peace!

There are separate downloads for newborns and infants - you can use them separately or together.

Choose no more than one of the following for newborns:
No Sounds will play the regular crying animation with the sound removed.
No Sounds Or Animations plays the happy newborn idle animations instead of the crying one, and the regular happy idle sounds will play too. The title just refers to the lack of crying sounds, and helps make it clearer that both newborn versions don't need to be installed together.

Choose no more than one of the following versions for infants:
No Sounds removes the crying infant sounds from all animations in which they occur.
No Looping Sounds only removes the sounds from looping animations, which is where I find the noise can become particularly repetitive and grating.

With any of these files, all other behaviour related to crying babies remains intact - sims will still react to the noise, even though we can't hear it. The baby's portrait background will also still turn blue so you can see when they need attention, which is more important for newborns.
