Kahlil has just about mastered all his toddler skills and will be aging up soon, so Abu asks Sofia if they could try for another baby. She's a Hopeless Romantic, so enjoys the attention Abu lavishes on her. She agrees.
Sofia is an adult sim. I didn't hear any nursery chimes when they tried, but since you don't always get that clue, I wasn't sure whether their attempt succeeded. So they tried a few more times. They liked that!
Still not hearing any chimes, and worrying about Sofia's age, I did something kind of risky. I had Abu give Sofia a romantic massage. I learned the hard way with another couple that this type of massage will increase fertility...and the chance of twins. Abu would be happy about that, I suppose, but Sofia might not. Or me!
Several more baby tries. No chimes. But I decided the two of them had had enough fun in the boudoir for now. Time to just wait and see.
Then we got confirmation! Sofia was expecting. My sims always have the simmunity reward, so my gals never get morning sickness. I have to wait for the first little bulge to appear. Now the question is: did Sofia get pregnant BEFORE that massage or AFTER? Will I be dealing with twins in Hidden Springs?
Abu devotes his time to keeping Sofia happy, healthy, and comfortable.
He can't complain. He enjoys all these activities too.
Last day of Winter and another one of my not-so-smart ideas: throw a gift giving party. The place was a mad house. But everyone had a good time.
Oh that aching back! Time for a deep tissue massage and one more of Sofia's wishes is granted.
Abu drives Sofia up to the Old Mill Tea House. Beautiful surroundings. Elegant atmosphere. Breathtaking views.
Unfortunately I forgot that the last part of the trip has to be hiked. No roads! Poor Sofia. It's a long way up there!
By the time she makes it to the gate, her back is aching again.
But she agrees. The effort was worth it!
Back home, Abu and Sofia both take naps, then I let Sofia daydream in bed.
After some quiet time, the contractions begin!
They drive off to the hospital just to make sure everything will go smoothly. It's the Proper thing to do, says Sofia.
A short time later...and thank god...ONLY one little boy is born. They named him Jahan. As godparent, I gave him the Good and Brave traits. His older brother Kahlil has the Genius and Athletic traits. Neither boy seems to have inherited Abu's genie blood. But Kahlil is a Pyromaniac and Jahan is Immune to Fire.
