I've no idea what was going wrong! I started again with a new sim, and there was a glitch where when she started to "show" nothing happened, other than her waving and the camera constantly zooming in on her. I tried deleting her (using moveObjects on) and restarting, but she was outside the house waving, and the camera kept zooming in on her. in the end I gave up and put her in the bin!

I started again with another new sim, and so far so good, she's on her 4th pregnancy with a child, toddler and baby to look after...

Just started this mission (my first btw)
Just from right off I miss maxmotives it is amazing how dependent I am on cheats.
If anyone wants to check out my sims story I posted it on this blog site

I had to give up again! the same thing happened, she wouldn't stay in bed, she wouldn't stay in the shower, she took food from the fridge then didn't cook it, then she went into labour and died...

the sounds of the babies/toddlers screaming while the Social Worker came to get them will haunt me forever!!



I'm going to try again with a new sim...

Not too bad so far, but it's getting trickier! :-) I hardly ever have families with more than two children, or if I do I spread them out so that the woman is never pregnant and looking after a toddler, so this is certainly different!

**UPDATE** Two children, a toddler, a baby, and pregnant with #5! The Energizer is wonderful! I'd never used it before.... Smart Milk is awesome too. So far the three eldest all got Potty Trained and learned to walk and talk. And Mummy has 15 skill points, mainly in cooking :-) Only bad thing is that she's passed out once..... I'm really enjoying this challenge! :-D


I forgot that I was doing this challenge, and deleted all my neighbourhoods..... And I was doing so well too! Just loading up the game to start the challenge again now.....

I did it last time without using any money cheats to start (makes it more of a challenge!), and I intend to do that again this time, but is it allowed to get your sim a job on the first day so that she gets maternity leave pay for the rest of her adult life (as she's always pregnant/raising kids)? That way she would have a (small) income, and I could play without needing extra money to start with......

My poor Mummy sim now has 5 children - the eldest (a son) has just gone off to college, then she has two child daughters, a toddler daughter, a toddler son and another baby due very soon! :-) So far she's passed out once, other than that no problems! Oh, apart from a near brush with the social worker when child #3 played chess outside for hours in mid summer and nearly got heatstroke.....

The three kids that are passed toddler age, and the oldest of the two toddlers, learned all of their toddler skills. Mummy has 14 skill points, mostly in Cooking. Eldest son Adam got 3 scholarships when he went to university (right after he became a teen, I phoned College.....Apply for Scholarships and then straight after moved him to college) - for an A+, high cooking skill and high cleaning skill. The next child becomes a teen in 3 days, and is looking likely to get 5 scholarships! :-D Mummy uses the Energizer whenever she can, and Smart Milk also comes in handy! :-)

I am really enjoying this challenge! :-D I am now playing the uni household and the main household concurrently - so I played the three day gap between the two eldest with the uni household, so when child #2 ages to teen I'll move her in to a uni household with her older brother.

Oh, and I'm naming them alphabetically.... Sad, I know! So far I have Adam, Bethany, Cassie, Danielle and Eric, with baby Fiona or Frederick on the way...... Mummy is called Jillian Lockley, so no alphabet games there....

I am taking a second stab at this challenge. Learning some tips along the way
Like the smart milk and the energizer are naturally your best friends through this challenge. It's funny playing the game I don't use these because its so much simpler using maxmotives.
I also think if you have Freetime using the second ambition as knowledge might help especially learning cooking skills as quick as possible.

I'll try this! I think it will making the mother feel tortured. Haha.
But I want to ask. If the 1st pregnancy is conceived by cheat, is it OK if I use cheat for the next pregnancy? Or should it be naturally?

My sim definetely could not wait to be an elder.
She had an astounding 10 kids the with a set of triplets and another single infant towards old oge.
4 of the kids became teen before she became elder
2 were kids
3 toddlers
1 infant

I might get her married and move back some of the teen

I tried this challenge, but haven't finished yet because I was preoccupied with another family (Plantsim with a huge farm and produce selling business) but I just had her order a ton of pizzas when she could and stuffed them in her inventory. Practically solved the food problem when she was in her 2nd and 3rd trimester and caring for more than one toddler at once. Of course, I think I may be cheating a bit- I've got the toddler blankets so the kids can put themselves to sleep. But I have managed to get her the energizer, the thinking cap, and the smart milk with her and her kid's aspiration points. She's a Family Sim with Knowledge on the side so she's always rolling wants to teach the toddler skills. She's currently got a child, a toddler, an infant, and one on the way, and she's doing surprisingly well. This challenge is easier than the "Toddler Mania" challenge, but then I couldn't even finish that one because I got so frustrated! ("Toddler Mania" involves one parent raising seven toddlers at once)

I could possibly be an in game glitch, because sometimes when sims have very low Hunger and Energy meters they go into what I call 'Lockdown' because they will refuse to sleep because they are so hungry and then when you finally after about 5 pass outs have a sim with a cooked meal, sitting at the table, she will just flop and sleep in her dinner which lowers other meters.

The best thing to do is just let her fall asleep in the food, then wake up when she seems ready and make her eat, then sleep, the get others stats up.

I might try this. Sim babies and toddlers are a pain in the butt for me though arrgg lol

Default new twist
Thank You, by far the best baby challenge i've ever read although i created my sim as a young adult and immediately dropped out with no skills then moved her (mary magdalene) to super luxurious underground mansion surrounded by empty fixit homes so when her children graduate college they can really start from the bottom. so basically a legacy is born. Thanks again for helping me create my new Jerusalem.

p.s. the first child was a boy (what's his name)????
