Do you sway for genders?

I use MCCC to choose what gender and how many babies my sim is pregnant with.

What ever the game decides is what I go with in respect to born in game babies. I don't do a thing to alter that and do not use mods or cheats in my game.

Sometimes. I usually use mccc to check what a pregnancy originally spawned as and if it changes after travel or something I change it back.

I usually leave mine as the game decides, only exception is when I notice a gender imbalance happening in the world.

I like surprises so I don't influence anything. Sometimes I make it part of my own game challenge and let it shape my story.

For instance, I have Dracula living with his three brides and he wants a male heir but all of his brides have produced only females so the first born is the current Chosen. However, he has set his sights on Lilith Vatore and has been engaging in risky woohoo so if something "accidentally" comes of it and a son is produced, the child will be revered as his new heir. This could possibly result in a future uprising from his daughters who might seek vengeance when they are grown, for the estate and rightful recognition in Vampire society.

Oh, the suspense! Lol.

My main save is a ‘challenge’, so I don’t use cheats in it. Otherwise I have done the in game cheats to select the gender, but I honestly prefer the surprise that comes with it. Really makes for interesting stories.

I don't like to control the gender. But I play rotationally, so I'll find whatever family I want to play during my rotation, and can stop a few days extra if I like.

I've modded out any ways to influence gender. I definitely want this up to the game.

If I don't care about children's gender, I let the game decide. If I do, I do everything to influence the gender.
What always come as surprise is the amount of children.

Not usually, no. I have tried to encourage multiples a few times thouh.
