Re: Sim becomes Pregnant without me doing anything

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Rarely (0% - 9%)
What is your current game version number? 1.84.197.1030
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? all of them.
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? open a save and play as a sim that can get pregnant. possibly needs to have recently had a baby as mine had one the last time i played.
What happens when the bug occurs? a sim that had not tried for baby or whoohooed will suddenly become pregnant.
What do you expect to see? i expect my sim to not be pregnant when they have not done anything that would get them pregnant.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Yes
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Yes
Please describe the patch or change you made. it was the patch that was released on/around the 17th of February 2022.

‌

so far, i have only seen it happen once, and that was the first time opening the game since the patch. I have been playing it today and so far, she has not gotten randomly pregnant. MCC risky whoohoo is on, but i haven't had them whoohoo since conceiving their last children, so i don't think it would be that. also, bypass played households is enabled, so there shouldn't be an issue with that either. there was one other person who stated they had this glitch too, and didn't have mods, so I do believe it's a patch issue.

    Something similar happened to me on console (XBox Series S). The Sim had already given birth an in-game day before and the game had been saved before starting up and having the Sim announce they were pregnant.

    This doesn’t have anything to do with the “Talk about extending family” interaction does it? I know that can instigate a pregnancy.

    @247Mitzy No sorry, I thought you were on PS. I've since edited my post when double-checking. For Xbox it's very very insanely difficult

    @crinrict No worries! I wish I could send it, because I would like to know if it’s an error or something I did like accidentally click Try for Baby instead of Make Out in the closet menu. That’s the only other thing I can think of that could’ve happened. I’ll check some other saves later today that I haven’t played yet and see if any Sims are pregnant, too. I have a few that I know wouldn’t have had any reason to be.
