Playing with the baby is an option, but is not required. It is suggested that the interaction that leads to the "Should we have a baby?" question be performed away from the lot's borders, as it is possible for the bassinet to appear on the sidewalk or in the street, in which case the player will be unable to move it in buy or build mode unless the move_objects cheat is used.īabies awaken approximately once every 6 hours and require feeding (although strangely enough they never require diaper changes) and to be sung to sleep. The shower of flowers will resolve into a green bassinet with white bedding.

The player has the option to decline.Įither way, a baby arrives immediately in a shower of flowers, at which point all other Sims gather to applaud the newborn. This phone call occurs at random, usually at around 4pm. A phone call is received from an adoption agency asking if the family would like to adopt.In Get a Life mode for the console version of The Sims, the player will not be given the option to decline. The "playing in bed" interaction can only work if a Sim has a Vibromatic Heart Bed or a downloaded bed that's based on it. Two Sims of opposite genders must interact romantically either by kissing or "playing in bed" and then hope for the random chance of a dialogue asking "Should we have a baby?", to which the player can answer "Yes" or "No".


In order for a baby to be born in The Sims, one of two things must happen: "Should we have a baby?" dialog in The Sims.
