I am officially sick of twins.

I agree with this, too. The Don Lothario scenario I had where he was forced to adopt all my unwanteds best illustrates this. :D Poor, Don. Poor, poor Don.

How can you treat Don in such a horrible way? Do you not know that since seeing him as a teen with a floppy hairdo I am totally besotted? And he's so VIRILE. How many Sims on the verge of death (again) can do risky woo-hoo in a woo-hoo bed twice in a row and get both girls pregnant one after the other? You have to admit that for a guy getting on for 80, this is no mean feat.

ahem. I treated Don in a horrible way before you discovered how hot he was as a youngster. And he makes a great daddy, dammit! :D
Yes, I know he's a great Dad. Well, in his younger days he wasn't so good, he was too busy sowing his wild oats, but once he settled down with Dina he was a brill father to their twins. They both became elders while they were still toddlers (or babies, can't remember) and Dina did sod all, just stood there hanging like a monkey. I SO hated that woman. Maybe it's 'cos she had HOT DON, although I didn't think that at the time.
Anyway, what I said earlier about no twins since NL ... forget it. Just had a Sim with a baby newly-turned-toddler get preggers again - might have been able to squeeze one more in, but that's all. They don't have a great deal of spare cash, plus her father lives with them. The game KNEW this. She won't be having them for a long time though, there are quite a few other families to play to catch-up with that family. Hope she enjoys being pregnant.

Use Inge's teleporter shrub to put one up for adoption. That way, you're not killing it, but sort of putting it away for later (when you resort to adoption) heh heh
Now there's a thought. Usually if my sims adopt, though, I have them adopt children because I don't want to be bothered with the infants and/or toddler stages, and we all know everyone wants babies and leaves the poor children homeless! ;) Even so, it's a great idea and might encourage me to actually adopt a little more frequently without fears of getting some of the default faces.
Age them to child before you send them, doesn't Nightlife even have a handy code for this? The InSiminator (or Tombstone of Life and Death) also does it nicely.
I usually place a group of downloaded Sims on a lot and use them to breed a pretty adoption pool for the neighbourhood. Using the InSiminator's 'have babies/twins with', accelerate pregnancy, and aging options, you can have it done in a couple Sim days. Once they've had two pregnancies, I wipe their memories and turn them into townies. I have a nice selection of appealing orphans (various ages, genders) and no nasty Maxis-monkeys (who almost always show up with the same name 4 townies already have)
BeckerCheez:
I have noticed that twins seems to be as genetic as hair and eye color. In one family of mine, I had a first generation Sim give birth to twins. The female 2nd gen twin gave birth to a single child, and that 3rd gen child grew up to give birth to twins. So somehow in my case it skipped generations. However, the 3rd gen's husband had twin siblings. So hmmm... ???

So many people yelled and screamed for twins, and almost everyone used a mod that gave them more than 1 child :P I guess they upped the odds of having twins in NL (even tho its not proven but most say it's likely).
I've had many sets of twins myself since NL and yes it is getting quite annoying. I have yet to see an abduction in my game. Yes I could download a hack but I've always wanted it to happen "naturally". Most of my sims are knowledge too. /sigh
Well you could use twojeffs "abductions - higher odds" mods, it will do what it is saying that is just slightly increase the possibility of your Sims to get abducted, so it will still be a natural one. Here is a link to that mod in case you are interested: http://www.moreawesomethanyou.com/smf/index.php?topic=1194.0

Thanks for the link Missdoh :) I already put that in couple weeks ago but so far still hasn't worked. Then again I haven't played a great deal since.
If not I'll just download a hack that does the trick entirely. I'm just a lil freaky over the whole male pregnancy thing, I know it's a game but it's still ewww to me :P
