@PenguinFoop Sorry for the late reply. Not sure if it helps, but here's the answers to your questions.
I don't have Growing Together. I do have Get Together. (You asked about Get Together, but I think you meant Growing Together..?)
The recent pregnancy happened (I think) between patches PC: 1.95.207.1030 / Mac: 1.95.207.1230 (Jan 31) and PC: 1.96.365.1030 / Mac: 1.96.365.1230 (infants patch Mar 10). But I'm not 100% sure. It might have been after the infants patch. My screenshots of it date to March 20. But I don't patch right away, because I wait for the mods I use to get updated. So I'm not sure if I had patched to the infants patch by then or not. I did have a lot of mods in the game when it happened, but none of them deal with pregnancy or alien abductions in any way. The save I was in when it happened was a brand new save, with a brand new character. The alien abduction was triggered by a cheat, but I was not intending to get him pregnant. He got pregnant with just one abduction.
The other pregnancy (in the other save) happened quite a while a go. The screenshots of him pregnant date to Aug 2, 2020. So almost three years ago. It's a long running save. He was in the scientist career and got randomly abducted a lot (around 9 or 10 times, but I'm not certain exactly) but only has gotten pregnant once so far (I play with aging turned off, so he's still a young adult).
EDIT correction
I take it back. The save in which the sim recently got pregnant was created in Jan of 2023. So the save itself predates the infant patch. I'm not sure if the sim who got pregnant had that happen before or after the patch though.
Ah so you haven't had a PFA since infants?

Try selecting the can get pregnant in CAS & to see if that helps your Scientist to get pregnant through Alien Abduction.????
That's not a solution. It's supposed to be random, unexpected and out of the ordinary, not a lifestyle choice.

I've never had an alien abduction pregnancy in my game, ever, since I started playing in 2019. I have all the EPs and am fully patched. After trying for a long time, doing the things Sims are supposed to do, I just gave up and saved some aliens to my library to... use... when I wanted an alien baby.
Ever? That doesn't make sense. It sounds like maybe a file got corrupted during install? It used to be very easy to get abducted and pregnant.
Not ever. I bought GTW when it came out in 2015 and my female Sim got abducted super easy, but of course they don't get pregnant. Then I ignored the game until 2019 in favor of 2&3, so I don't know how easy pregnancies were during that time. I've read that at some point they tuned it because people were saying it was too easy. I've only had abductions when I was really making an effort and I've never had one result in pregnancy. I don't generally use mods, but I've thought about getting a mod to make it more likely (I assume there's one out there).
Ah okay that makes more sense. And yes, abductions are easy and PFA happened quite regularly, I had a sim that got abducted I think 5 times and each resulted in pregnancy even when he quit using the satellite, they kept coming for him.
