Sims Talk: Question about Pregnancy and University

I have a couple of questions. I know that I can use InSIM to make a YA sim pregnant while at university, but how does one go about having the baby? If a sim got knocked up, and then dropped out of uni, would they still be pregnant and have the baby normally once they transitioned? Can you do it at any stage in the pregnancy (or do you have to do it before they "pop")? I heard that you can't move the baby, once born, unless you age them to teen, which is not good for a story, but moving out a pregnant sim would be perfect if it works. I tried to find the answer to this question on my own, but my searching only unearthed the answer, "you can't get pregnant at uni unless you use a hack", which I already knew. I need more detail, and I know that someone reading this must already know the answer. I really appreciate your help!

Why do I ask? Oh, no reason... *wink* Just weighing my options.

Want to start a preggo pool?

My money's on Jill Smith.

LOL. Why am I not surprised that you're the one to start this?

So, Jill Smith would make sense, but you can't have a pool without options, so who else is there? Phi's not doing anything with anybody, neither are Jayne and Stella. We don't know anything about Bottom. Unless one of the guys gets abducted, who else would it be but Jill?

How do you know that Jayne isn't doing it with anyone? She has been romantically involved with someone, but we haven't seen exactly how involved.

Just saying.

Who? Besides Johnny and Stella, who else is there? Johnny's still with Phi at this point (unless that changes), and I don't think Stella would pollinate Jayne when she knows that she plans to settle down with Johnny in the future.

So, you do realize that I now have to go back and re-read all the entries with her, right?

*still cursing her head off*

Yeah, you're right... Stella wouldn't do that. I just thought you might have missed the fact that Stella could pollinate her.

[identity profile] music-simbol.livejournal.com 2008-03-25 10:36 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh no, I'm all over the situation! Sure, Stella could but, she wouldn't. At least, not at during college.

Don't try to confuse me.......hmph.

But, to keep all of the options open here, remember that just because people aren't having sex right now, doesn't mean that they won't be... and condoms can break (especially if the user is inexperienced). A number of these sims have slept with a lot of other sims. It could be almost anyone, really.

Have I thrown you off the scent yet? *snicker*

That was my first thought!!

[identity profile] sinderellah.livejournal.com 2008-03-25 10:47 pm (UTC)(link)
More speculation now that I think about it more...

Hmm hypothetically, if Jayne wanted to try to "help Johnny change his mind" re: Marriage, dumping Ophelia, etc, she could possibly get knocked up by him. But that would mean him cheating on Phi which he won't do... he felt guilty just going for coffee/etc with Jayne, as well as sex before marriage! Something I can see his younger sister experimenting with, but he's too much of a good boy for that.

Perhaps if Jayne really does not get married to Johnny, I can see her getting pregnant via Stella. She does really believe in preserving the alien race so if she wanted to "do her part" I could see her doing this but more as a last resort.

Unless Ripp has an accident with one of his conquests, but I would think he's playing it safe and invests in condoms. I know I would if I was one of the girls on campus and having an encounter with him!! XD

You have Johnny figured out. It would take a lot to wear down his prudish resolve.

And Ripp is playing it so safe that he probably doubles up on condoms (not really a good idea, but the boys is not really all that bright *snort*). Or maybe he uses the man pill... and that might explain why he gets so emotional. I definitely see him as a "use as many birth control methods as possible at all times" kind of guy. His "chain of condoms" that he keeps in his pocket has already been mentioned (how he fits them all, I don't know. It's like a magic pocket, I guess).

*SNORT* "man pill"

He needs that midol in that download set. Poor emotional wreck.

And pulling one string of rubbers out of your pocket is no weider than pulling a mop/ho/car/piano/what the hell ever out of your ASS, like sims seem to do.

Hee! Please, tell me you meant, "hoe". Although....

You have to love sim realism, where they can steal your car and stuff it into a tiny sack!

Ripp not only buys his condoms in bulk, but he carries them ALL with him at all times. (And he doesn't really need condoms anyway, because he has no genitals! *snicker*)

Heehee. Go ahead and place bets. I can't say anything yet about who may or may not get knocked up, though.

I'm gonna play the incredibly evil devil's advocate and lay my bet on Ripp. Maybe Stella "accidentally" pollinated him during one of their meet-ups. Yeah. Oh god, I'm horrible. You'd think I didn't like the boy...
ext_122042: (Default)

[identity profile] strange-tomato.livejournal.com 2008-03-26 12:10 am (UTC)(link)
Heheh. Ripp is never completely safe from pregnancy, with the amount of sex he has. And Stella is new to condom use, so this theory is not completely off the wall...

[identity profile] ikichi.livejournal.com 2008-03-26 02:01 am (UTC)(link)
It *could* be Stella... condoms do break, after all...

[identity profile] madame-ugly.livejournal.com 2008-03-26 01:02 pm (UTC)(link)
True, true.

But an oopsie baby for Stella doesn't have the same dramatic bite as an oopsie baby for Jill.

The Jill route is predictable, but so delicious.

[identity profile] ikichi.livejournal.com 2008-03-27 04:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Plus, Jill's oopsie baby could be in Buck... ::/evil grin::

[identity profile] madame-ugly.livejournal.com 2008-03-27 04:45 pm (UTC)(link)
OH SHIT. I didn't even THINK of that.

Ooooh, even better. . .

Now you're thinking. I was hoping if anyone would see this (unlikely, yet still possible) possibility. I did.

I was surprised that nobody thought of that, really. ;) It is a possibility, isn't it?

Though, is it very likely? Are Jill and Buck THAT adventurous?

[identity profile] ikichi.livejournal.com 2008-03-27 05:07 pm (UTC)(link)
Hah! I had *just* thought of it, and was sure someone had beat me to it!

Well... I was thinking more along the lines of Jill expressing without being inside of him- like maybe that's how she found out she could even *do* that. (You know, like how a woman can be impregnated without being penetrated, if the semen/pre-cum is close enough to be brushed in by hand or leg or whatever).

Bring on the drama!

Predictable can be good. But is it TOO predictable? Hmmm...

[identity profile] madame-ugly.livejournal.com 2008-03-27 06:24 pm (UTC)(link)
I say it's not too predictable. The PT factor keeps it original.

And quite frankly, I think it works for Jill.
