This wasn't supposed to happen!
Brynne:
I've heard of this happening but I never experienced it until tonight. How common are "accidental" pregnancies in this game? One of my YAs just had his very first woohoo, and got the woman pregnant! I couldn't believe it. I have no risky woohoo mod installed at all. What are the odds of this happening? My sims need better birth control!
Venusy:
Without hacks, there is no accidental pregnancy. The Inteenimater includes a 5% (I think) chance of it happening, though I think you can disable it using the biological clock. Was the woman a YA, or older?.
SciBirg:
Yes, there is accidental pregnancy in the game. Don't know the exact numbers though.
I was wrong:
Thank you for contacting us here at Electronic Arts Technical Support.
I am very sorry for the difficulties which you have experienced with The Sims 2. The chance of getting pregnant while doing just woohoo is 0%. Sims can only get pregnant with the "Try for a Baby" option. Although many of our games are very technical in nature or difficult to play, the issue you are encountering is not with the game. You may want to surf the web and check out some of the major video game sites as they usually offer gameplay hints for EA games. One major resource for Hints and Tips is http://www.gamefaqs.com . Also, newsgroups are a good source of information as hardcore gamers often message each other back and forth in these forums.
You may also log in to http://www.thesims2.ea.com and join the Community BBS for more hints and tips. :D :D :D :D :D
Should you require further assistance about this or any Electronic Arts game in the future, please visit our website and review our extensive Self Help Knowledgebase (http://support.ea.com).

somebody once explained that it's possible to have your pointer close to the Woohoo option so that it looks like you are clicking on woohoo but you are actually clicking on Try for Baby.
I guess you chould say that birth control does fail in the Sims for the same reason it fails in real life - human error.

Like in real life, the odds of an accidental pregnancy are based on how fat-fingered you are. I believe Hook has a diagram of how you can fatfinger it. Because you're a dumb, incompetent Brynne and would likely do something like that. Nyah.
