How do you get a male Sim pregnant on Sims 4?

To get a male Sim pregnant on Sims 4, the primary method is through alien abduction, where there’s a 25 percent chance of a male Sim returning pregnant after being abducted by aliens, indicated by the “Weird Tummy Ache” moodlet. This unique feature allows for male pregnancy in the game, distinguishing it from traditional pregnancy scenarios where female Sims are the ones who get pregnant after WooHoo with a male Sim.
