How do you Abort a Baby in Sims 4?
As Sims players, we all know that pregnancy is a crucial part of the game, but sometimes, it can be overwhelming to take care of a new baby, especially if you have multiple Sims to manage. Luckily, in Sims 4, there are ways to handle unwanted pregnancies and deal with the consequences. In this article, we will explore the different methods to miscarry a pregnancy and what to do if you choose to have an abortion.
No Abortions in Base Game
Before we dive into the methods, it’s essential to know that in the base game of Sims 4, there is no option to abort a pregnancy. However, we can explore other ways to handle unwanted pregnancies.
Miscarriage
A miscarriage in Sims 4 is when a pregnant Sim’s body rejects the fetus, and the pregnancy ends. To trigger a miscarriage, you can follow these steps:
- Pregnancy Trimester 1: The pregnant Sim will enter labor and start to give birth.
- Pregnancy Trimester 2: The Sim will still give birth, but with a chance of miscarriage.
If the Sim is already in labor, there’s a chance the baby might be born prematurely, resulting in a miscarriage.
Abortion Mod
Now, if you want to use a mod to make abortion an option in the game, you can try the Abortion Mod. This mod adds a new interaction to the game, allowing you to abort a pregnancy. Keep in mind that mods may have compatibility issues with other mods, so be cautious when installing.
Using the Mod
To use the Abortion Mod, follow these steps:
- Install the Mod: Download and install the mod from a reputable source.
- Find the Option: In the game, go to the hospital and interact with the receptionist. Look for the "Abortion" option.
- Pay the Fee: You will need to pay 1,000 Simoleons to undergo the procedure.
- Procedure: The Sim will undergo the abortion, and the pregnancy will be terminated.
Consquences of Abortion
After an abortion, your Sim will experience "Feels Guilty" or "Feels Relieved" emotions, depending on their traits and preferences.
Other Options
If you don’t want to use the Abortion Mod or don’t want to risk a miscarriage, you can also consider:
- Adoption: Give the baby up for adoption, which will bring you a small reward and allow you to continue with your Sim’s life.
- Parenthood: Choose to become a single parent and raise the baby on your own.
- Family Planning: Focus on family planning and prevent unwanted pregnancies by using contraceptives or using the "Try for Baby" interaction wisely.
