Alien pregnancy is impossible

I have a male sim in the science career, he currently has the logical skill at lvl 8, and is on lvl 5 in the science career. I have had him use the observatory to «search for the truth» and I have invented the Satelite Dish to contact the aliens.

While I have suceeded in getting my male sim kidnapped, he never returns pregnant.

He has been kidnapped four times. After the third kidnapping I re-loaded my game close to 30 times, to the point of the kidnapping, and never once did he return pregnant.

I am currently on the fourth kidnapping and have re-loaded my game five times now. Still no luck.


I have had to turn aging off because this is taking so long. I rarely play with Aliens or the scientist career, but when I do I want it to work like it should.

    Hey here @marianlarsen,

    Your male Sims only have about a 25% chance of becoming pregnant from an alien abduction, so it is going to take several attempts to get it. I do believe the outcome is already decided once the abduction happens, so reloading the game wouldn't change the results. 

    Keep at it though, and it will eventually happen!

    If only it were impossible! In my game, Geoffrey Landgraab, who is NOT in the science career and has the logic he needs for his secret agent career and hasn't done any of the telescope/scientist object interactions, was randomly abducted the moment I rotated into his house and had ALIEN TRIPLETS OMG.

    He was invited to the bowling alley as an NPC by one of my other Sims when I was playing them (Johnny Zest), and I think he spoke to an alien while he was there as an NPC. In my experience, the absolute sure-fire way to get abducted and wind up alien pregnant is to interact with aliens. Once you have an alien in your household it's just CONTINUOUS.

    I would recommend going to the bar on Alien Night and trying to chat up some aliens.

    (The three of them crying in unison will haunt my nightmares, AAAAA SO STRESSFUL! I somehow resisted the urge to send them to the homeworld and hired a butler to help instead. I was stressed out but Geoffrey was having the time of his life because FAMILY TIME.)

    No honestly it just doesn't work at all anymore I have a male sim that's level 10 scientist career with level 10 logic that is constantly getting abducted and not once have I gotten a alien baby if the 25% chance actually functioned properly then by that assessment I should of had at least 1 alien baby with that sim by now (which I have not and have reported that bug multiple times with never once it being fixed)

    xX13Violet08Xx  Do you have a full house (8 sims... which includes all sims that have a thumbnail in the bottom of the screen, pets, Servos, horses, etc., count, as do the number of 'in-vitro' babies/puppies/kittens any of them have = pregnant sims/animals)? If you have a full house an abducted sim cannot get pregnant. And only male sims that are abducted can get pregnant. I try to always keep a full house to avoid it since my sims, for various reasons, tend to get abducted. One abduction went under the radar a few months ago for me and definitely got pregnant, so unless it broke between then and now, I still see alien abduction pregnancy happening, and regular abductions. So, from what I'm seeing recently, I would say don't lose heart if it's what you want to happen...
