Adding a sim to family

Hiya, I use a mod that takes the place of woohoo and I have the settings on autonomous. My single-sim household runs a dormitory and got one of the roommates pregnant. Now she has left the dorm and gave birth. But whatever I try, I cannot add her And their child to the family (the cheat-version Add to family only adds her). There are currently 7 roommates in the house as well (with beds left over, I've previously had 9 roommates).

The sim I want to add with her child is nowhere in the Household management thingy (accessible via Manage Worlds) while other ex-roommates who've gotten pregnant (by other roommates) are in there. Any idea how I can add both the sim and her child to my sim's household???

  • @jpkarlsen After several days of trying the Sim is still not in Manage Households while my sim has been able to get engaged to her... so I kinda have given up on recovering the baby... just wanted to let you know

    Since they are in Household management this means that they were culled by the game. Likely because they were homeless.

  • @jpkarlsenbut I can still call the female sim and invite her to come over. She comes, but when trying to add to the family she doesn't bring the baby along. Or do I have to go the long way around and become boyfriend, girlfriend first and marry before being able to get the baby in the household as well???

    And I've checked around and some of the others that are stated in the Management thingy are stated as Currently not in this world (or similar... I play Dutch version). So technically the sim I want to add should be there as well with her baby???

    Since you can call her over she will be somewhere in Manage Households. The baby may not be there.

    But you can try to add her to your household If the Mod you use supports that.

  • @jpkarlsenI've now looked multiple times in Managed Households, even reloaded the particular game save. The genealogy of my sim still says the kid is there, I can still call the mother to come over, but she still isn't in Managed Households, not on her own, not with baby (and she's also not part of another households, which sometimes does happen in my game for some reason, I don't mind that actually)..

    The mod only affects the act of woohoo (gives more options & loads of more places to woohoo), not what happens to the family or NPCs etc...
