What do you expect to see? Try for baby is grayed out and says there is no available sim nearby when I click on closet. Try for baby doesn't appear on the bed. My sims are engaged and have a full romance bar so they should be able to try for baby.

Please describe the patch or change you made. This happened after I installed Lovestruck expansion

Here is a screenshot of the grayed out.

  • Just in case I'll ask: what are these sims' gender settings? You can access those by clicking on the three dots button below the gender selection.

    In particular, make sure that one of the Sims will be able to Become Pregnant and the other one will be able to Get Others Pregnant. 

    If you open your Sim's Simology panel, you can easily view and edit all the gender settings by clicking the Enter Create a Sim button under Relationship Preferences.

    Hey jumping in here to say that my sims just got married at the romance festival and I added this closet to Planet Honey Pop. They are literally married and can't even "Woohoo" let alone "Try for baby" because "There are no nearby available sims." Yet they could go "dive for thrills."

    So somehow it is bugged. I tried deleting it and placing a new one, same result.

  • Hello the game updated today and now the try for a baby option is not showing up when I click on the bed or shower

    Move your Mods folder to the Desktop and delete localthumbcache.package. Then test the game in a new save.
    If it works now check for updates to your Mods and CC. Add it back a little at a time while testing until you have found all that are broken.
