my sims keep waking up

I downloaded the Dreamers from the gallery, I also downloaded a house for them. their beds are comfortable. but they keep waking up and missing things in their queue. Their energy bar isn't full and they wake up. they don't need to pee or eat, everything in the green. is this a bug??
The good news is they just had triplets, I think the first in born game triplets in any of my sims4 games. 2 girls and a boy.
  • If you're not against using mods, you could try this: http://littlemssam.de/sleep-all-night/

    Are you in a city living apartment? I have noisy neighbours at the moment. Gf is pregnant so not looking forward to when baby arrives. I’m thinking we might need to be looking at our own house before long once the baby arrives!
  • I would command them to sleep, and then while they're sleeping, command sleep again, so even if they wake up, they'll go right back to bed.

    I'm going to try this one I keep having an adult sim wake up despite looking for any other problem.. no electronics in the room, pets are locked out. I'm almost thinking it's because I downloaded the lot... she has no problem sleeping through the night in the butlers (single) bed with the doors unlocked. It's a mystery.

    Pets can wake up sims through the walls. They don't have to be in the bedroom to wake up your sim.


    Thanks I wasn't sure ... I don't remember seeing any type of training for cats to stop doing that so far I'll look when I go back to it. I started playing a house with 3 dog's and I saw where you can lecture them :).
  • My household were sleeping properly when I last played them. whatever it was seems to have gone. I'm playing a different household now. I hope anyone else with the same problem gets it sorted.

    I just had this problem with a vampire household that has no pets, no children, no electronics. They won't sleep through the day and keep getting out of their coffins in the middle of the afternoon. Once I send them back in they seem to stay in for the most part. I wonder if there's a glitch that's causing an event, kind of like the monster under the bed, but it's just waking up Sims for no reason? I do use mods and CC so I haven't completely ruled that out.

    if there is nothing else even as a glitch is there a low need? I noticed some of my sims don't stay in bed if their other needs are getting lower.

    Not sure if this is still happening, but the last time I played this kept happening. I use no cc and have been playing the same household for quite a while, seems like it happened after I bought the last packs, Cats and Dogs and one another that was on sale.
  • Does resetting the sim work for you? I had this problem yesterday (I'll try the game today again and see if it remains), and I thought it was because my sim put some item in the pocket instead of putting it on the table before going to bed, as that used to be a problem with the toddlers. Toddlers were always fixed with resetsim though, and I tried this on my sim and it didn't work.
    It's in an apartment and the neighbours weren't noisy at the moment. Although, the night before the neighbours were noisy and I didn't get the option to bang on the door! I had to travel to another block with my sims and return and then it wasn't noisy any more. But I'm wondering if this is the same bug, that they can't sleep because the noise didn't end properly (by banging on the door or just waiting for them to become quiet).
    I turned of the lights and put curtains on the window because I figured, maybe it's too light to sleep, but they're still awake. And no, they haven't had coffee and the mood isn't light green (I don't know what that mood is called in English).
