Gestational, 2005

Hapar, spring, 2005
mini-update
Suzanna never thought that she would be so busy so quickly.

"I reviewed the test results and I can confirm that yes, you're pregnant."



"Pregnant!" Jesse squealed. "We're having another baby."

Fiona smiled. She didn't seem as happy as her husband about the newest Kent, but then again she had a lot on her mind. Even though Fredic was found, she still worried about him. What made him leave his family in the first place? Was it genetic, like how her grandfather left her grandmother? Would she one day leave Jesse? Their marriage wasn't the stuff of romance novels, but it was comfortable. They enjoyed each other's company and raised their children together, but she sometimes wondered was it enough? What about that searing passion you hear about? What about the jolts of electricity that other couples have? Was that a necessary part of marriage?


"You know that you will need to follow the recommended diet and prenatal activity as your last pregnancies."


"I still can't believe we're pregnant." Ginger gushed.

Grex grinned like an idiot. This pregnancy was going to be so much different from their last pregnancy. Last time, Grex was in danger of losing his wife over something as silly as carnal passion and electricity. They both now realize that even though sparks and chemistry is nice to have, commitment is also greatly important, if not more so. You needed a sim stable enough to rely on to help raise your children, a sim that you enjoyed being around and that made you comfortable. That searing passion was nice, but it wouldn't help your marriage make it through the fires of temptation.

"We have been discussing ways to expand our family for so long. Maybe adopting again, but I never thought that I would be pregnant!"


"I want to have a look, to check on the baby, if you don't mind."

"Not at all!"

"Everything looks fine, you should have a healthy baby really soon."

"Any advice?" Cameron asked from the exam table. She was nervous, this was her first pregnancy and she wanted to make sure that she did everything right.

"Enjoy your family before the newest baby arrives. Show your other children plenty of attention and love since the new baby will take a lot out of you in the beginning."
"I'm glad it stopped raining long enough for us to take the kids out," Tobi commented pulling Cameron closer.

"Yes, this is such a nice day." She replied keeping an eye on Aaron as he slid down the slide with passion.

"Maybe we should have ice-cream for dinner?"

"The kids will love that, and so will I. I'm starving, let's go."

Suzanna is going to be one busy doctor. Not only does she have her own pregnancy to look after, but she has three others to assist in as well.
Have you experienced a recent or memorable baby boom?

  1. I'm going through a baby boom right now and it looks like you are too!

    I had three babies born last night (which will be posted in Birthdays tomorrow) and I have two more due! Together with the baby born at the beginning of the round, that's six babies in two years!

  3. Lots of new babies coming in soon! How exciting! :D

    My biggest baby boom was 7 babies in one year. (two sets of twins in there), they're all 5 years old now. Really going to bog down the school system that's for sure.

  4. -Carla, wow. Three in one night-that is a baby boom!

    -Shana, Suzanna does have her hands full. In addition to the births, she still has the everyday pediatric care-including the Wilsonoff's new baby.

    -Maisie, I recall having a similar baby boom-but it was only 5 children-two sets of twins-in the same simyear. I think Li wrote it up in the paper as well.

  5. Cameron and Tobi, too? I'm happy for them, but a part of me can't get past Tobi and Li Sweeny being a family. LOL! That's crazy, right?

    This year is somewhat of a baby boom for me. I've got 4 pregnancies this summer. It would've been 5, but Stacy Masters miscarried.

  6. -SH, Cameron is due pretty soon, she and Tobi tried successfully for this baby. I know, I try not to think about how fast Tobi has moved. From Li to Ginger to Cameron.

  7. Suzanna does have her hands full, doesn't she? I really feel for her being pregnant herself on top of it. And it sounds like she's still going to be extra busy after the baby is born too. I'm excited for the Kent's too. I wondered a few posts back if she was pregnant again. I remember you saying you had installed new ACR. Is there anything significantly different from the old version of ACR?

  8. -Em, Suzanna is one busy woman. Thankfully she knows how to turn it off after work, unlike her sister-in-law.

    The new ACR has some new features like ideal family size and birth control options that the older version didn't have.
