Sims 2 get pregnant

In Love — The Sim will get jealous toward any Sim they are in love with. Crush — Normal Maxis jealousy; The Sim will get jealous toward any Sim they have a crush or higher with.

The One Sim is who your Sim currently has the hots for as shown in the token stats menu. This is also the Sim your Sim will choose for a booty call. If set to dynamic, The One Sim is recalculated every hour.

If static, their One Sim remains the same. I recommend leaving this on dynamic to allow your Sim to change who they have the hots for over time. Choose a Neighbor — Allows you to manually choose who your Sim has the hots for from a list of Sims in the neighborhood.

Set to Sim Name — If there is another suitable Sim on the current lot, you may see their name in the menu and you can select them directly. In this case, dress means what your Sim wears when they woohoo. If a Sim has a dynamic setting, their settings are recalculated every day. Casual — The Sim will prefer casual or swimwear. Undies — The Sim will prefer underwear or swimwear. Nekkid — The Sim will prefer to woohoo naked. Pregnancy Odds — Leads to another sub-menu that allows you to choose pregnancy odds settings for a specific Sim.

If dynamic, their settings are recalculated every day. Change Odds — Manually change pregnancy odds for this specific Sim. This will set a constant percentage chance of a Sim getting pregnant from Try For Baby.

Change Risky Odds — Allows you to change the risky woohoo percentage for this particular Sim. Birth Control is Off — Allows you to place this Sim on birth control. When on birth control, a Sim cannot get other Sims pregnant or get pregnant themselves — except through risky woohoo.

In my gameplay rules , if a Sim has the fear of having a baby, I place them on birth control. A Sim can still get other Sims pregnant, but cannot get pregnant themselves. Ideal Family Size — Allows you to set the ideal number of children for this particular Sim. If set, this number is used in the Try for Baby calculations.

The cheating options are not dynamic even if the menu says they are. If you manually set them, you need to change the setting to static or else they will change back. Hood-Wide Settings Hood-Wide settings are settings that affect the entire neighborhood.

Default is obviously enabled. Teen Woohoo is Enabled — Allows you to disable teen woohoo. Note: This is just woohoo. ACR does not add teen pregnancy. Cheating is Enabled — Allows you to disable cheating for all Sims. Auto Woohoo is Enabled — Allows you to disable autonomous woohoo, meaning your Sims will no longer woohoo unless you direct them to. This feature was never actually implemented. The first will show the odds of them trying for baby.

If the first is successful, the second will show the random number rolled when actually trying to get pregnant. Booty Calls are Enabled — Allows you to disable booty calls. When enabled, a Sim who lives alone will autonomously call their One Sim for a romantic visit when their timer runs out.

Auto Gender Preference is Disabled — Allows you to enable automatic gender preference. I really love this setting and always turn it on. When enabled, all Sims will have their gender preference randomized for them the first night after they age up to a teen. You will get a pop-up box informing you of their preference. Sofa Woohoo Test is Standard — Allows you to toggle the sofa woohoo test from standard to relaxed.

Each time a Sim woohoos through the ACR Casual menu, there is a chance the woohoo results in pregnancy unless you set this to zero. It determines how often your Sims will automatically woohoo or try for baby.

You can always adjust this depending on how fast you want your population to grow. Required Relationship — Allows you to change the required relationship level for casual woohoo to be successful. You can change both short-term and long-term based on aspiration or change them all. Cinematics — Allows you to change if the cinematics cut scenes play normally, never, or always. Normal will only show the woohoo cut scene the first time. Sim-Mothers spend 3 days 1 per trimester pregnant, maybe a bit more.

For this guide's sake, we say days of pregnancy, so 72 realtime minutes. I apologise for this, as I was pulling an all-nighter to write this guide, and was skipping around, and this was the last section I did. These are shown more rapidly in the sims, however, and you'll get a mini-cutscene, showing the pregnant sim's stomach grow in bursts after a nights sleep usually. As her stomach grows, her mood swings and her needs increase. In the first stage, your sim will get morning sickness, and vomit alot, and a thought will appear with a pacifier and a question mark above their head.

Then, their stomach will be slightly expanded, and they'll start to walk differently. At this point, they'll also start to wear maternity clothes. After that their stomach keeps expanding until the delivery see sub-section e in this section c Pregnancy sim's needs In general, the pregnant sim will have their Energy, Bladder, and Hunger decrease more rapidly.

This is a mild increase during the first stages, but gets to be more and more noticable with the later stages. Near the time of delivery, it may be difficult to fufil your sim's other needs, particularly fun and hygene. Hygene is easier than fun, while the other needs can be taken care of while taking care of the other 3 social and comfort while eating, comfort while sleeping.

Try and set aside some time for your pregnant sim to have fun, but remember: they're pregnant. Don't have them do anything too strenuous. I'm not sure if strenuous activity has any adverse effects on the pregnancy, but I wouldn't take chances, this is a baby afterall. So feel free to have your sim mom play basketball.

However, when they are in a good mood, there are a few actions you can only do while they're pregnant. These are under the new tab "pregnancy" when you click on your pregnant sim.

You can have another sim rub their stomach, or have them listen to it. I haven't gotten my pregnant sim in a good enough mood to allow it yet, so if you want to send descriptions of the animations, please feel free, and I may include them in the guide. Then it shows the sims select arrow twitching and sprinkling magic dust stuff, and then it splits into 2 arrows with one being smaller, then you see a picture of your sim mother using mother as the term for the one that carried the baby with your new baby in their arms.

The parents will have the coveted Platinum Mood for about days after the birth, but only after the first birth. Either way, for now I'm gonna say that cutscenes only happen on the DVD version.

Section 5 Genetics Okay, a break from game mechanics to have a brief science lesson. This baby will have characteristics based on your parent sims. Using this lesson, you can predict how your sims might turn out. Physical traits are caused by genes and chromosones.

There are about 46 genes, and they are arranged in sets of 2, so there are 23 gene set. Each sex cell has 23 single chromosones, carrying one of the 2 chromosones that that particular parent had. Now, you may think "well, if one sim had blue eyes, and one had brown eyes, how am I gonna know which my kid will have? That can be explained VIA Dominant vs. Now, every possible thing for a gene has a gene that is dominant and a gene that is recessive. I'm sure it has to be a bit more complex than just Dominant vs.

Recessive, but this is the extent of my knowledge. As an example, we take Blue eyes versus Brown eyes. In this case, brown eyes are the dominant trait, and blue eyes are the recessive trait. The recessive vs. Dominant traits are represented with lowercase letters for recessive, and uppercase letters for dominant traits. In ANY case, if a dominant gene is present, it will take precidence. This makes the sim parent with a dominant feature, such as brown eyes, the X factor in the guessing game.

So if we take a sim with blue eyes, and a sim with brown eyes we have this : Parent 1 : BB brown eyed or Bb brown eyed with a blue recessive gene Parent 2 : bb blue eyed To see the chances of a Blue Eyed Baby, we must use a Mendel Grid.

It is always, for this, a 2X2 grid. This grid is labeled on each axis with a sim's genes. For this example, we'll use the Bb sim for the brown eyed parent, and the bb parent for blue eyed.

But what if the brown-eyed parent has no recessive blue-eyed gene? P2 B B P b Bb Bb 1 b Bb Bb So you have no chance of a blue-eyed child, but if they the child marry someone with blue eyes, they have the chances above of a blue-eyed child. One more case to look at is 2 Bb parents. Enabling testingcheatsenabled and shift-clicking a pregnant woman allows the player to force twins by clicking on DEBUG: force twins. Under normal circumstances, it is impossible to have triplets, quadruplets or more in The Sims 2.

Players may download third-party hacks to obtain the option of having triplets or quadruplets. When having triplets or quadruplets, the game informs players that the Sim in question has given birth to two babies, despite the actual number.

Players are still able to name each child, though, as the option pops up twice. In The Sims 3 , a player can use the fertility treatment to get twin and triplets, but not quadruplets. Players may download third-party hacks to obtain the option of having quadruplets.

In The Sims 4 , players can buy the "Fertile" trait from the satisfaction reward store to increase the chances of getting twins or triplets. In City Living , players may also use the "On Ley Line" lot trait to boost the chances of conceiving twins. There is no pregnancy in The Sims , but if a family is evicted while there is a baby in the house, the baby will be lost.

Miscarriage per se does not occur in The Sims 2 , but if a pregnant Sim dies, the baby will effectively be lost, as in the case of Olivia Monty 's unborn baby. Family members will not get a memory of losing the baby, only the Sim who died.

If the pregnant Sim is resurrected, their pregnancy will continue as normal. The only exception to this is Olivia Monty, who lacks a pregnancy token and merely has the appearance of being pregnant.

If a pregnant Sim becomes an elder , the baby will be lost. Normally, a Sim who is close enough to elder-hood for that to happen cannot become pregnant. However, negative effects of drinking the Elixir of Life can age a pregnant Sim to the point where it becomes possible, or even move the Sim into the elder life stage.

With the InTeenimater , a mod for The Sims 2 , the player can make a miscarriage when a Sim is pregnant. She will have a miscarriage in her memories.

The PlumbBob will glow red, and the Sim will start grasping for her stomach. A thought bubble with a pacifier and a question mark will come up. The Sim will then be in her normal clothes, and start crying.

The pregnancy may even end with a miscarriage autonomously , if the pregnant Sim's motives are low, specifically hunger and energy. The player may also choose an option known as "End Pregnancy" which will stop the pregnancy completely, meaning that the Sim will lose the baby but will have no emotional distress or memories of losing the baby.

With the InSimenator , a player can buy the Reproductive Adjustor, which looks like a microwave oven. If the player selects a pregnant Sim and clicks on the Reproductive Adjustor, one of the options will be "Abort Pregnancy". Aborting a pregnancy sometimes makes the mother depressed. Another option on the Reproductive Adjustor is "Suspend Pregnancy", which will pause the pregnancy until the Reproductive Adjustor is used to resume it. In The Sims 3 , it is not possible for a pregnant Sim to lose the baby, without any cheats.

In The Sims 3 , if a Sim is impregnated or turns pregnant before becoming an elder, the process of aging is simply suspended until after the baby is born. It also appears that pregnant Sims in The Sims 3 cannot die , and will avoid or survive events that would normally result in death, even if those events are arranged by the player.

Sims who have successfully conceived, but haven't realized they are pregnant, cannot die as well. There are many mods that will stop a pregnancy, however most of them don't have any negative effects on the Sim. If the player clicks on the pregnancy moodlet while pressing the Ctrl key with testingcheatsenabled on, it will not stop the pregnancy but simply deny the mother a happy moodlet during her entire pregnancy.

If this happens to the "Baby Is Coming! In several pregnancy mods, there are varying "End Pregnancy" options, some giving moodlets such as "Broken Heart" or "Strained". There is currently no definitely known way to influence the gender of an unborn child in The Sims 2. The only way to change the outcome is if the player saves while the mother is going through the labor animation, or any time during pregnancy before the "new baby on the way" popup comes up and the birth cutscene begins.

If, after the birth, the baby is not the desired gender, the player can exit the lot without saving and go through the sequence again; this can be repeated until the baby is the desired gender. No Maxis cheat or fan-made hack exists to force a gender, though there have been many rumors, none of which are true. These include a fake "boolprop force[gender] " or the "twinsr2cute" cheats. Another rumor is that if a pregnant Sim eats gelatin it will increase the chance for a girl.

It has also been rumored that the baby will be a boy if the father initiates the "Try For Baby" action, and will be a girl if the mother initiates it. However, this has been disproven. Making a Sim pregnant by themselves using the Tombstone of Life and Death will result in a baby that is always the opposite gender of the Sim giving birth. In The Sims 3 , there are ways to increase the chance of having male or female babies. Eating 3 or more apples during the pregnancy in each trimester will greatly increase the chances for the baby being a boy, while 3 or more watermelons during each trimester will greatly increase the odds of having a girl.

If the Sim is carrying twins or triplets, there is still a chance that both boys and girls will be born. Also, if a mother asks a Level 5 Medical Career Sim for the gender and eats the fruit for the opposite gender e. Patch 1. For example, watermelon pancakes will not increase the chances for a girl. There are many mods that allow the players to choose a baby's gender or tweak the chances in one direction or the other, but these mods all have their own rules and may not be subject to information given here.

Patch 17 introduced a method for influencing the gender of offspring. Eating strawberries or listening to pop music will increase odds for having a girl, while eating carrots or listening to alternative music increases the likelihood of having a boy.

This does not affect babies conceived via alien abduction, however. Pets, like Sims, cannot become pregnant per se. Pets born in-game have no personality points. In The Sims 2 , a Sim can command a pet to WooHoo in a large pet house with another pet of the opposite gender, provided that the Sim has a good relationship with the pet being commanded and the two pets have a good relationship with each other.

Kittens and puppies in The Sims 2 can do things, and Sims can interact with them, unlike in Unleashed. Kittens and puppies cannot get jobs nor learn commands, but they can learn behaviors. Pet pregnancy in The Sims 3 is mostly the same as in The Sims 2 , with the exception of horses, as they are a new addition. Horses can breed in a box stall or be taken to the equestrian center and bred with a horse of the player's choosing.

There is also a lifetime reward available for all cats and dogs that will increase the number of kittens or puppies that they have at once. Like previous games, pets can attempt to try for kittens or puppies. Pets will get moodlets depending on whether they succeeded or not.

A notification will appear if the pets become pregnant; however, the notification may sometimes appear even if the WooHoo was not successful. Pregnancy lasts around one Sim day.
