No 'Try for Baby' option in Sims 4

I had made a family using cas in february. I opened my game yesterday and undated both Origin and the Sims. I moved the family i had created into Windenburg and had them get married. I now want to get them to have a baby but there is no option for it. i only get the WooHoo option.

I've tried moving the sims into a different world and house. I've resetted my sims using all possible ways, i've tried all of the different woohoo spots but nothing is working. I tweeted EA last night but they couldn't even help me.

Keep in mind:
-All relationship bars are max
-No cc or mods

    Hi @heyyitscourtney2,

    Is there any chance those sims have custom gender settings? Keep in mind that one of the sims needs to be able to become pregnant while the other needs to be able to get others pregnant for them to be able to try for a baby.

    I have this issue too. I only get the wohoo option. One of the sims is an npc and I cannot edit him in cas nor can I even see what his gender settings are. Maybe I have to send her out cheating. She has the fertile trait and they are both adult. There are 3 cats and no kids in the household. My sim has try for baby as a whim. The npc is Morgyn Ember. Her father is Father Winter. I only pair my sims up with npc partners it seems. ☹️

    Hi @Vildra - Morgyn Ember is a pre-built sage Sim. You should be able to see him in Manage Households - if you play him (move him to "My Households") you can take him to CAS.

    It appears that Morgyn is built with custom gender settings including using female clothing options, and not being able to impregnate or be impregnated. If you want to change those settings, you would need to edit in CAS full edit mode.

    1. Press "Ctrl + Shift + C" to bring up the cheat console
    2. Enter "testingcheats on" (without the quotation marks)
    3. Enter "cas.fulleditmode" (without the quotation marks)
    4. Edit in CAS as you like
    5. Enter "testingcheats off" and then close the console window by pressing "Ctrl + Shift + C" again

    More info about cheats and using them can be found in Carl's Guide. Happy Simming!

    Yes and thanks. I found out that is the case from another sims player. I chose to adopt instead. I changed his outfits but I couldn't even see his gender settings.

    @MiaSkywalker1 I was having the same problem, have mods and on of them mc command centre and I removed all of the pregnancy and woohoo modules and when I then clicked on the bed the try for a baby option appeared so it is probably something wrong with that

    @Miaaahay Yes, it turned out it was something I had inadvertently set using MC Command Center. Removing MCCC didn't fix the problem, unfortunately. I ended up having to put MCCC back in, in order to change the setting back and make them able to have kids.

    I don't remember now specifically what setting I had made, as that was quite a while ago for me.

    @MiaSkywalker1 I changed my mind about adopting and used the normal cheat cas.fulleditmode to change the custom gender settings on Morgyn. After getting the two kids I wanted I changed them back. Unfortunately he was abducted by aliens on the night of the birth of his twin daughters and got pregnant so I got an extra green kid. ^^
