What're the odds? 8 births, 8 male infants
sewinglady:
I started a new Riverview neighborhood about a week ago... have seeded the neighborhod with several families, but mostly have just played 2. One family was two sisters. They each spawned two boys - all with different fathers. Odd, but okay. Then one of their sons married a girl I made just for the occasion...and she had two boys. So that's six males spawned, no females, all on same lot. So then I had one of the other sons marry another sim I created and moved off the lot. They had...wait for it...a son.
So decided to try a whole new scenario - made a married couple in CAS, moved them to a new lot, built 'em a house and let 'em get pregnant - and she just had a son.
And in checking around the neighborhood in the edit town mode, I've realized that there've been no female babies born, not even to townies. The only females in the game are the ones I've created in CAS. There have been only male children born to townie families and CAS created families that I've placed but don't actively play.
Just what's going on in this instance of Riverview? And has anyone else encountered this.
Georgette:
Maybe there's a severe watermelon shortage.
sewinglady:
Actually, for at least two of the pregnancies, I let the mothers to be eat nothing but watermelon - including 'raw' whole fruit watermelon as well as meals cooked with watermelon so that just adds to the strangeness of it.
Georgette:
Must be sheer bad luck then, I guess. On the sims 2 I once had a couple whom I planned would have a daughter. 11 male pregnancies later, I got the girl I wanted; it's annoying!
sewinglady:
11? I'd have killed 'em off long before that...in fact, I kinda miss being able to kill sims so easily... some of them just vex me to no end.
