I've never had this happen before. In my legacy household it's the heir (Marina), her husband (Gavin), her brother (Oliver) and two dogs. Oliver was invited out on a date to a restaurant late last sim night. While he was on the date I was admiring how cute the whole situation was. I glanced down to the household panel and noticed Gavin was tense. I clicked on him. He had a tense moodlet that said this:Conception Tension (From Trying for Baby)If a Sim hates children, they're bound to be a little tense about a potential pregnancy. Gavin has the 'hates children' trait. I seldom play that trait but he's a randomly generated townie. Does this mean Marina is pregnant? I'm so confused- I didn't know sims in your household could automously try for a baby. I wasn't able to switch back to her and have her take a pregnancy test because my (real life) dog tried to tear things up. The anticipation is intense. Has this ever happened to you before?

I've had it happen once. What I thought was an ordinary hot tub woohoo, turned out to make one of them pregnant. I didn't check their action queue, because I was focused on other things, I wasn't paying attention to them at all. So I just let them carry on. Guess they decided to try for a baby instead? I have no clue. They ended up with twin girls as well.

Well now I'm curious to see if she is pregnant :p

No, but that sounds like fun. I don't use the 'hates children' trait because I don't hate children. I know of no one in my life who hates children, in fact.

@PninaSimmerWe need this update dear :D

She was not pregnant thankfully. I have risky woohoo on 2% so it must have been that. But some other crazy things happened that same sim day... Her husband left her for her brother! So now she is divorced.

I never had a birth unless I wanted them to have a kid, but I think it might be possible that a couple in active household can try for baby by free will. I normally play one of the parents when they are not at work, and I've ticked off free will for active sim, so they hardly had a chance to do this on their own.

Nope I'm new to Sims and have never installed any mods or custom content! Just Spa Day and Cats & Dogs. The earlier time it happened at home in bed, this time we went to the lighthouse and I was about to have them go for it but they did it on their own before I had a chance!

I kind of love fighting with my Sim about what she wants to do, haha!

As some of you might remember I had this happen some time back. I couldn't believe it and really didn't want to share it at first because of the grief others had gotten from reporting the same thing. I haven't had it happen since - but now I don't trust any of my sims. I do have Sims that go off and woo who on their own.

Never had that happen without a mod, It would drive me mad If it was an in game feature, even if it would make the game play more interesting
