Bit of an odd glitch with 'Deliver a Baby" in the Doctor career.

dizzydee_k

My Sim needed to "deliver a baby" to be promoted. I kept getting the announcement that there was a pregnant sim arriving - BUT - they kept arriving as pregnant co-workers. No option to deliver their babies. This did finally sort itself out - BUT - I was looking in the Household Management panel and there are now 4 homeless sims with babies.

Pondering what to do with them. Wondering: Will Sim Social Services take the babies away? What happens to homeless sim babies?

Hello.
Other simmers are also having this issue. The pregnant sim doesn't appear as a patient .
For simmers who are having this issue, it would be good to press " me too " on this thread on the AHQ EA site that refers to the issue

You will need to use cheats to promote your sim

Homeless babies age up in time if you have "age unplayed sims" checked. If you don't, they stay babies forever.

You can also get homeless babies by opening the adoption panel. Doing this around the same time a child is born is a good way to generate similar aged townies (as long as you have aging on for them) as you play through several generations.

I keep getting this glitch too. The game says to deliver the baby and a pregnant sim never shows up.

I had this as well. A notice that a pregnant sim finally came in, but she was just sick with llama flu and no option to deliver a baby at all. I just cheated to promote so I can advance through.
