How to Make Sims 2 Pregnant
To make a Sim pregnant in Sims 2, a male and female Sim need to woohoo on a bed, hot tub, or clothing booth, and then select the “Try for Baby” option, which has a 60% chance of success on a bed, 50% in a clothing booth, and 25% in a hot tub, making pregnancy a deliberate choice in the game. The pregnancy period in Sims 2 lasts for approximately 3 in-game days, after which the Sim will give birth to a baby, unless the player intervenes with cheats or mods to influence the outcome.
Understanding Sims 2 Pregnancy
Basics of Pregnancy
Pregnancy in Sims 2 is a process that allows Sims to produce offspring, extending their family line and allowing players to experience different stages of Sim life, from infancy to adulthood. To initiate pregnancy, both the male and female Sims must be adults or young adults, as teens cannot become pregnant without the use of mods or cheats.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
How do I increase my chances of having twins in Sims 2? The easiest way to increase the chance of twins is to have the pregnant Sim eat cheesecake, which requires a fairly high cooking skill. Alternatively, using cheats like boolProp testingCheatsEnabled true and then selecting Force Twins on the pregnant Sim can guarantee twins.
-
Can I force a specific gender for my Sim’s baby? There is currently no existing cheat, mod, or hack to force a specific gender for the baby. The only options are the Tombstone of Life and Death or exiting and reloading until you get the desired gender.
-
How do I know if my Sim is pregnant? The game will typically play a jingle similar to “Rock a Bye Baby,” and the best way to confirm is to let a Sim day pass. If the pregnancy was successful, the Sim will change clothes and announce the pregnancy.
-
Can my Sim get pregnant if aging is turned off? Yes, Sims can still get pregnant even if aging is turned off. The pregnancy will proceed normally, and the Sim will give birth after 3 days. However, the baby will not age unless aging is turned back on.
-
How many babies can a Sim have at once? A Sim can have up to seven babies at once through a multi-step process involving cheats. However, the household is capped at eight Sims, so having six babies at once is the practical limit until one grows up and moves out.
-
Can I make my Sim have triplets naturally? Normally, Sims give birth to one baby at a time, but there’s always a chance for a pregnancy to result in twins or even triplets, especially if the pregnant Sim eats cheesecake or uses the Fertility Massage from the Spa Day Game Pack.

Why can’t my Sims try for a baby? Ensure the female Sim is not already pregnant and that there are fewer than eight Sims in the household. Also, check that the female Sim is an adult or young adult and not close to becoming an Elder.
