Re: Pregnancy pauses aging (possibly only when nearing elderhood)?

Not just Adults but also Young Adult Sims. The female Sims seem to temporarily stop aging for a few days when pregnant. This has happened to several different Sims in multiple saves. Not sure if this is by design or a glitch. The last time I looked it was particularly noticeable was with Twin siblings. Female had been pregnant twice. I happened to be checking to see how long she and her Male twin had before their Elder birthdays. She was Six Sim days younger than her Twin. I ended up using the Birthday cake so they would age up the same day. Her sibling died of old age. But she is still alive at least two Sim weeks later.

    I don't think it is a bug because the game is intentionally programmed so the pregnant sims can't age up or die.

    Maybe they should prevent the "Try for a baby" if the sim is going to age up in less than 3 days.
