Line 10:
Under normal circumstances, only female Sims can become pregnant. However, in ''[[The Sims 2]]'' and in ''[[The Sims 4: Get to Work]]'', male Sims can be impregnated as well, either through [[alien abduction]] or by the use of [[cheats]]. In ''[[The Sims 3: Seasons]]'', male Sims can experience a sort of pseudo-pregnancy as the result of alien abduction. In ''[[The Sims 4]]'', as of [[The Sims 4/Patch 34|patch 34]], a Sim's ability to get pregnant or get others pregnant can be set with the optional [[Create a Sim#Full View|Customize Gender]] menu in CAS, regardless of the Sim's gender.
Pregnant Sims count as two Sims when it comes to household sizes. As such, it is impossible to move in a pregnant Sim to a household of seven (unless another Sim is moved out) or become pregnant in a full household.
==Conception==
Line 102 ⟶ 104:
The third trimester lasts one day. The expectant Sim will get the attention of the player and the abdomen will enlarge again. They can no longer drive, take a taxi, use the [[Swings|swing]], or use the electro-dance sphere from ''[[Nightlife]]''. They will suffer from mood swings, in which the outcome of [[Social interaction]]s between the pregnant Sim and another will change. In ''The Sims 3'', they will get negative moodlets, such as the "Sore" moodlet, and may no longer run.
In ''The Sims 4'', the third trimester can last 1 or more days, as birth can happen at any time rather than at a set time as in previous games. While normally Sims give birth within 3 days of the start of the third trimester, it can be extended indefinitely by preventing the Sim from entering their lot or a hospital.
===Birth===
Line 111 ⟶ 113:
In ''The Sims 3'' a little pop-up will say: "The baby is coming! Make sure (Sim) is at home or in the hospital so she can have a safe and comfortable birth!" If the Sim goes to the hospital, the player won't be able to see anything, but can still hear the birth taking place. If the father of the unborn child is on a different lot or at work when a Sim goes into labor, he will go to the [[hospital]] to be with the mother. If the Sim stays at home, the Sim will turn on the spot, and the baby will be born there.
In ''The Sims 4'' labor lasts several hours. The Sim can continue to do things while in labor but will be continuously uncomfortable. If the player bought a bassinet previously, the Sim will go to the bassinet to give birth when the time comes. If they didn't or the Sim is blocked from accessing a bassinet, a bassinet will spawn spontaneously when the baby is born.
After the birth of the baby (or babies), the player will then be able to name them. In ''The Sims 3'', depending on how happy the mother was during her pregnancy, the player might be able to choose both traits for the baby, just one, or none at all.
