Nowadays, Baby All Gone is fed bananas and yogurt instead of cherries, and the juice or milk is given from a bottle instead of a juice box, which saved on cardboard waste from empty boxes. It appeared as a doll with blue eyes and messy curly blonde hair, not dissimilar to the modern doll, although the 1990s version seemed more traditional and less "cartoon-ey". It only came in two versions, Baby Alive and Baby All Gone. They, as opposed to modern Baby Alive doll food and juice, had names such as Yummy Juice and Baby Cherries. It was later discontinued, and a non-speaking baby was released in 1995 with snacks and juice boxes, although these came in boxes and cans rather than packets that were mixed with water. These dolls did not sell well due to the loud gear noises and her "deep adult voice". There were sensors located inside the doll to detect what stage the food was at, and trigger its voice to say "I have to go potty" or "All done now". It was fed in the same manner, but swallowed automatically without the need for a lever, and used a potty instead of a diaper. In 1992, the first talking Baby Alive doll was produced. In the early 1980s, Baby Alive achieved popularity, selling up to 1 million dolls each year.

The doll was intentionally designed to simulate the challenges of infant care.

The food would move through the doll and end up in her diaper as plastic waste. The spoon would be inserted into its mouth, and a lever on its back pushed to have it chew the food. It could be fed food packets mixed with water, and came with a bottle, diapers, and feeding spoon. The first Baby Alive doll was introduced by Kenner in 1973. It was originally made and introduced by Kenner in 1973, and reintroduced by Hasbro in 2006.
