AwesomeStory not producing any babies?
Inge:
Noooo! Please don't change how sims need a crib in order to breed. I deliberately plan my crib distribution to make areas of the hood where there are large families, and other areas that are quieter and just have childless couples or a couple of kids.

I second this. Cribs are my means of control. Unless Pescado can come up with something better, don't mess with mah crib system.
To get story notifications, you must set InformOnStoryAction (or whatever it is called) to "true" in the configuration. You will be notified of everything except births (which I find aggravating). Read the newspaper for birth announcements. Or I hear that Buzzler's something-or-another (birth control mirror maybe?) provides birth announcements. Not sure if it has been updated, but since I see Buzzler running around here occasionally, I'd be willing to bet it is either updated or will be soon. Last I saw, it was available in the Pudding Factory.
Indiestone had a tendency to asplode hoods with random hook-ups and births. AwesomeStory takes a more logical approach. Marriages make sense, coupling ideal sims together. The process takes time, as it should, NPCs going through all the levels of romance just as your playables would. There is no wam-bam, instant 100+ sims hood. Personally, I like it that way.
Chiba:
Just so I get this right: Is one crib per house enough for a family in there to get several children, or do I need to place one crib for every possible child they should be allowed to get?
In other words, is a crib in a house just an indicator that they can start having babies, as many as they wish?
J. M. Pescado:
A crib is a storage receptacle for one baby/toddler. One crib is sufficient to induce them to produce babies, but the simultaneous bandwidth is limited by the number of cribs. So if there is only one crib, then they will produce one baby, then either seek to upgrade their house or wait until it is 6 before they produce another one. However, ince a larva is 6, it will now require a bed instead of a crib: If the house lacks one, the fambly may move to a place that has enough beds for everyone, which may or may not have a crib. If that new house lacks a crib, they will then not produce more.
kuronue:
Also note that not every house needs a crib - they'll move to one with a crib if they want to spawn.
