Do your sim a favor DON'T have the baby in the hospital

Thing is I clicked "Check in at front desk" and they still ignored the sim.

I see that they cut down on the health care in TS4 as well then :disappointed:

So the combined Willow Creek & Oasis Springs not only have no fire service and police force, with the exception of 'detectives' it seems that now, even the local health care is poor!

No wonder why my Sims refused to live there

I thought pregnant Sims couldn't die. Did she have the baby and then die?

Someimes I have the pregnant sim check in at the desk, other times they have just waddled down the hall and went down to the birthing table ...

What did the sim die from?

Embarrassment.

I had this happen to one of my sims giving birth at home. If their needs aren't met and they pee on themselves twice (which can happen easily when they're pregnant) there's a chance for this. Luckily, one of the relatives was around to ask Grimmy to save him (yes, it was a guy giving birth) and he lived. So it's not the hospital's fault or giving birth at home.

In my situation, the fault was mine for not getting his needs met and making him happy. I was too distracted with the birth.

Nope she died whilst pregnant.

Wait, why would they die?

Well thats one glitch I have managed to avoid so far. Never had any problem with the sims giving birth in the hospital. I have both checked in and not.

So, basically, she didn't die because of the hospital care. She died because she peed herself and that, combined with another Embarrassed moodlet, can easily turn into the Mortified emotion, which can result in Sims dying of Embarrassment. Case solved. :)

P.S. I say "can" because I've had three Sims in all of my gameplay time become Mortified and none of them died.

Can't really blame the game if it was lack of attention to your sims needs, now can you? ;)

My sims have given birth at the hospital and I've had no deaths.

If a sim dies because she only wetted her pants yeah, you can blame the game.

Pretty sure the "wet your pants" moodlet alone isn't enough to cause your sim to die? Could be wrong though, the emotions suck so bad in this game my sims are basically eternally happy.

I wish they'd take all the emotional deaths out. It's not funny.

Oh...please no. Don't give the devs ideas. It's hard enough to find unexpected things in this game. I haven't had one emotinal death yet.....I'm still trying.
