Do your Sims tend to have big families? I find that just about every sims family I play tends to have big families. Sometimes I have my Sims have a baby because they are rolling "have a baby" as a want. Other times, however, I have them have a baby just because I want to see what the baby will look like and whether it will be a boy or a girl. Also, the pregnant sims are so cute as they waddle around. It is tiresome sometimes, I will admit, to keep up their hunger and energy bars. I'm wondering if other people tend to make their sims have big families?

I used to have every Sim couple have anywhere from 2 to 5 kids. What ended up happening was my neighborhood (I only played ONE neighborhood) got too crowded and I couldn't keep up with everybody. Eventually something happened and I lost that neighborhood. I don't remember the details, I had forgotten to back it up and switched computers then realized I didn't have a back up, or something. Anyway, I had to start Pleasantview all over again, and this time I decided I would only allow each family to have ONE child and that was it. Twins do happen occasionally, but for the most part I've kept with this and it's much better. I also play more than one neighborhood now so none of them get so overcrowded!

I made my fiance and I on the Sims 2, and we inadvertently ended up with a big family. :) We had one daughter, and we tried for another kid, but I got impatient and adopted a kid instead. Then the next time my Sim got pregnant, she had twins--a boy and a girl! So we ended up with four children, which was WAY more than I wanted. I was hoping for 2 or 3 only. :)

I played Sims long time ago and I hardly remember how many children I had. Perhaps two. And it fulfilled my dream, I had one boy and one girl and that's wonderful for our family. Big family in Sims is difficult to handle. I love China

I love playing big families! It cool to see how they all get along in one big house. I have a family that has 12 kids! It awesome to bring the older kids home from college and they meeting their new brother or sister. It is bard work when you have a pregant sim and there are little kids thats hungry and the house a mess. It still is a lot of fun!
