SO frustrating at the limited non-CC clothing choices for female pregnant sims (I've not played a male pregnant sim. Yet ;) ) I'm not even sure a female designed half of them, or at least someone who's had a child. Not many pregnant women I know would want to wear a pair of leather pants but not yoga shorts. Not many would want to wear two layers consisting of a long sleeve tshirt and a short sleeve tshirt but not a sports jersey or any other type of long sleeve casual shirt, etc. A mini skirt but not any other kind of skirt. I know there's CC pregnancy stuff but I prefer to play CC and Mod free other than a few basic/NRASS mods. When you consider over 3/4 of the limited choices are actually from Generations, it's even worse. I just don't understand why they didn't at least add some here and there.Ok, I'm done. Whew. Just had to get that out of my system. You may now return to your regularly scheduled forum viewing :lol: :lol: :lol:

I remember when they released Generations I thought "hurray, from now on every pack will contain at least one outfit suitable for pregnant sims, they realize we want our sims to wear more than a dress looking like nightgown or a jogging suit!" Apparently not... :neutral: And they also never bothered to mark the clothes you can use for pregnant sims either.

Fortunately I rarely play females so I don't find it an issue for active sims but when a badly dressed pregnant female is in the background of a pic I want to take I do shake my head at what is available to them. I don't think there's much you can do about it without CC but I agree that more options should have been provided. For me, it was always frustrating that elders weren't properly catered for. I could never get my SS dressed in clothes I would actually wear until I started using CC.

@Mikezumi - I am curious, are there wardrobe restrictions for pregnant male sims?

@AbellaKellaher I have always used CC male pregnancy clothing but I imagine, with alien pregnancy, there might be EA outfits that accommodate it now. I only patched beyond Ambitions in the last few years.

I'm going to have to find this out in my simhouse future I think ;)

If I'm not mistaken, male pregnancy from aliens is a moodlet that makes the sim fatter and fatter. After the birth, the sim goes back to his regular weight.

@thuggishsplicer Hi M! That's interesting to know! I don't have aliens in my game so had no idea how alien pregnancy worked.

@Mikezumi Hey! I'm trying to get back little by little. I've working like a dog.
So, I haven't had an alien pregnancy yet, but I've read stories and Carl's website has some cool pics: https://www.carls-sims-3-guide.com/seasons/aliens.php

I intend to have an alien pregnancy soon, though.

I can confirm, I just had two male pregnancies in my Isla Paradiso Bunch videos. Both males got very fat and the second they gave birth they were skinny little things again. But they get fat all over their bodies, as the pregnancy advances they get fatter in spurts.

I don't take many screen shots while I'm making videos but I do have this one which isn't totally clear. Craig is lying on the floor, wearing the black and red shorts. He's very pregnant.

The shorts are something the game put onto him.

Found a better pic of Craig minutes before he gave birth.

In this pic you can almost see Craig from behind. See how skinny he is usually. Well he went from fat to skinny instantly the baby was delivered.
