Can elders have babies in The Sims 4? The answer is yes, but only if they have an uncanny ability to make a woman fall in love with him. The same goes for elder male sims. While they cannot have children, they can woohoo and have relationships. They also can’t retire from their careers, although they’ll get half of their previous salary.

Age bar
The Age bar for elders in Sims 4 is different than in previous games, because they do not live forever. Once they reach 100 days, elders are considered “old.” During this time, the Sim’s lifespan is normal, and you can expect your character to live for about another four months, but if your Sim is old, the age bar will be empty. However, you can still have babies while you’re an elder, and it will take a few days to fill.
If your Sim is an elder, the age bar will be set to a high number. If you have an elder male Sim, this will prevent him from getting pregnant, though you can still impregnate him or her. It is important to note that elder male Sims can still impregnate older Sims, but their baby will be a female child. But if you have an elderly male Sim, you may want to choose another one.
Pregnancy moodlet
If you are an elder Sim, you can take advantage of the cheat code for pregnancy and have multiple babies. This cheat will make your elders pregnant with one baby at a time, and you can also use it to produce multiple babies. This cheat will only work if your Sim is already pregnant and wearing the Eating for Two moodlet. You can find out what it is and how to use it on the cheat code’s page.
When you buy this mod, your Elder Sim will be pregnant for at least 24 hours. The timer does not count down to the day that the elder Sims will go into labour, but it triggers a different moodlet called ‘In Labour’ that grants them the ability to give birth to one child. The pregnant moodlet will give your Sim the uncomfortability +40, so you can’t just turn it off and ignore it.
Trying to get pregnant
‘Trying to get pregnant’ is available at the same point as ‘WooHoo’, but it’s only available to one partner. It’s also only available if that partner can ‘Become Pregnant’ or ‘Get others pregnant.’ You can alter this by using the Custom Gender Settings. However, if you’re having trouble conceiving, you can disable this feature altogether.
While there are numerous features from previous Sims games that have made a great pregnancy and baby-making experience more enjoyable, The Sims 4 still has some shortcomings when it comes to this particular aspect. To start, the player must send their Sim to the hospital. A scan will appear on the screen, and the results will be shown in a moodlet. This moodlet can be copied or hung on the wall.
Adoption costs
You may have noticed that some older adults are still adoptable, but they are reaching the end of their lives and are unable to raise a child. For this reason, the default age range for adoptable elders is 20 years. However, you can change this value if you wish. If you have a longer lifespan, you might want to change this value to something more realistic, like 40 years.
The Sims can adopt adult pets by visiting an Adoption Center, or they can simply be befriend a stray, or give it up to an organization. Sims can also adopt a pet for free by telephone, though there is a limit of eight Sims in a household. Elder Sims cannot be adopted if they are missing their memory of a previous child. However, if a Sim does not have a memory of a lost child, they can adopt other adult Sims.
