I'm sorry @ArchXDiablo, do you want to explain that again? Your issue is with the pregnant sim not showing up as I understand, but do you get the goal to deliver the baby? Or that doesn't pop up either? 'Cause that's my issue, I never get the goal (and therefore no pregnant sim obviously).
And I know I have newborn babies in my town all the time since I use MCC, townies love to procreate lol! One heavily pregnant sim even showed up to the hospital once, but as a normal sick patient...
Anyway, truth is I just want to know if I should be patient or if I should just skip to level 9 because the career is broken...
I went to the hospital for at least 4 work days since having the "deliver a baby" task, now the performance is fully green but I still haven't completed the task. I get house calls, and I got an emergency surgery one time. Also, I'm using a download hospital lost but everything works fine, patients show up fine and can use all/most utilities, so I don't think it's related either.
I actually just recently completed the doctor career. For me, I wasn't getting any pregnant sims either, but I waited until my bar was all the way up for promotion availability and that is when the pregnant sims started to show up for delivery. Not sure if I just lucked out with that one, but I would say, try to raise their promotion bar all the way and if you still don't see them coming in you may have to skip it for now. I, also, use MC command center and other cc. Some things I noticed was that the other employees do not do much. The nurse's just stand around talking to patients, but rarely ever do anything else apart from cleaning and fixing broken objects. It was annoying while they are talking to a patient and I want to help that patient nurse was usually in the way and I had to repeatedly queue it or just move onto another patient. Sometimes I would be helping a patient and I would bring them to get and xray done and afterwards when they were back on the bed a nurse would go talk to them and I wouldn't be able to help them any further.

I do get pregnant sims, but they keep the babies instead of just being a random emergency for the sake of doing your job.
At the beginning the nurse was talking to patients and cleaning, now they just clean and chat up the doctor.
The receptionist is useless, does nothing with the line of patients. Reminds me of Scientist career having a useless receptionist but hetere it should be crucial to check in patients much like how when you bring a pregnant sim to the hospital you check in at the front desk.

Yeah honestly I'm bothered by that as well! My sim is running all over the place and they don't do squat, can't even sign in patients or something, so they all go away after a little while 'cause they are sick of waiting, and sick PERIOD!
I really do feel like doctors, nurses, assistants and whatnot should at list sign them in, take them to a bed. At the moment they are just a bother 'cause when they are talking to patients, you can't treat such patient, when they're "analyzing" stuff, you can't actually use the machine to analyse a strain and treat a patient... All they do is bother my sim, prevent her from working. Compared to the vet career, I can't help but be disappointed by the other active careers 'cause you just realise that the colleagues are paid to chill lol. Detectives spend their days playing on computers and chatting, same really for the scientists, and well... I've said my piece about doctors.
So can we please get an update, some sort of improvement ?
I still don't know about the level 8 situation with the task to give birth to a baby though, I had to start a new save to see if that would fix another issue I have with family trees. So I started the career again, and went ahead to download a brand new fancy hospital. But since that new lot, the game has been lagging during her active work days. The sims sort of freeze and I have to pause for a minute otherwise I can't cue in interactions... there is no cc in there but it's a pretty big hospital so I'm guessing it has to do with all the objects and decorations. I deleted the 3rd floor but it's still freezing at times.

So much wasted potential. Orderly is only good to make my sim stuck at a patient bed when i cure them since they immediately queue up the make bed interaction not allowing my sim to move so I have to interact with him to cancel it. Nurses just chat up to patients blocking me. A nurse should be able to at least get a swab for me. A receptionist should check in patients when beds are free. At this point I'm seriously considering just getting some free time to see if I could mod it as such, this is a 2015 pack so I have little hope for anything to happen.
