It'll be like on TV - screaming, grasping their stomachs and then they're all comfy in a hospital bed with the baby!<br /><br />It's so funny but I had Zelda on another lot as a visitor last time I played and her baby want has rolled away! It wasn't fulfilled, obviously, because she's not Sylvia's mother but I like it when little things like that happen. It would make sense that it quelled her baby fever a little. Trent's baby want rolled away too, but his has never been as persistent as hers. <br /><br />Cara's scrubs are from <a href="http://www.modthesims.info/download.php?t=170743" rel="nofollow">here</a> and there are more colours <a href="http://www.modthesims.info/download.php?t=170992" rel="nofollow">here</a>.<br /><br />And there is a working hospitals hack that lets you have the whole birth scene on a community lot. Mizzgin03 uses it (or she did). She posted about it and linked to it <a href="http://laquestbeach.blogspot.com/2010/03/working-hospitals.html" rel="nofollow">here</a>.Carlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09140819019098738245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3968444616198803470.post-32281626245819860872010-06-23T11:36:47.262+10:002010-06-23T11:36:47.262+10:00Oh, by the way, I love Cara's scrubs! Do you ...Oh, by the way, I love Cara's scrubs! Do you remember where you got them? <br /><br />I love the hospital birth! I'm getting bored of my home births too. Is there a hack for hospital births? Does it allow the birth scene to happen on a community lot? Or is it residential?<br /><br />I suppose we could just make the hospital residential and move in for the birth, but that's kind of a lot of hassle, lol!<br /><br />I might try to stage something next time around. I was planning on making my Jodie a little birthing center/OBGYN clinic anyway, so it'll be fun to try out. I totally see my Bella as a hospital birth kind of girl, epidural to the max, lol! <br /><br />How neat too for the Bentons to get a little baby for a while! <br /><br />Oh, Elspeth is just the prettiest little thing! I think we all expected she would be though!

Completely closed adoptions seem to be sort of rare these days though, so what I end up doing will likely fall somewhere in between.Carlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09140819019098738245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3968444616198803470.post-2617001306956295262010-06-21T06:36:24.069+10:002010-06-21T06:36:24.069+10:00Happy birthday to them all!

I can't wait to see Elpeth again, I wonder how she will act as a teen, she already was a handfull as a child!<br />Welcome Alice and Sylvia June! As some others I really can't wait to see Sylvia June grow up.<br />Is Adrienne going for an open adoption?Tanjahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07054869544598274885noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3968444616198803470.post-50725328675495827772010-06-20T08:59:04.208+10:002010-06-20T08:59:04.208+10:00Sari, people who want home births here are conside...<b>Sari</b>, people who want home births here are considered to be <i>very</i> hippy and it's not commonplace at all. <br /><br />Hospital renovation is such a pain. There's just not enough stuff out there to satisfy me.<br /><br />I can see <i>some</i> Zaria in Josh too, though I couldn't articulate what features of hers he has. Maybe her mouth. His smile seems to have more of an upturn to it than Max's does, so that could be Zaria's genetics. <br /><br /><b>Tessa</b>, yes, that's why I chose the Bentons. I figured the adoption agency would have already checked them out when they adopted Jack, so they wouldn't need the intense scrutiny Rose and Joanna will have to go under. <br /><br />Ha, these are only single births because Virginia, Claudio and Adrienne don't have that fertility benefit. If someone like Lia gets pregnant this round, I fully expect her to have twins!Carlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09140819019098738245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3968444616198803470.post-5327508896761473012010-06-20T07:53:04.408+10:002010-06-20T07:53:04.408+10:00Josh and Elspeth look great, and Matthew and Simon...Josh and Elspeth look great, and Matthew and Simon look adorable!<br /><br />I'm glad to see that the Benton's will be fostering Sylvia. They've already had one adopted child, so they seem like a good match to me :)<br /><br />Haha, finally a single birth with Alice and Sylvia!

The home births bother me a lot, it's <i>very</i> uncommon in Finland. I might try that with the next birth if I ever get the hospital renovated.<br /><br />Josh looks so much like Max but I think I can see some Zaria in him as well.

Apple Valley,...Thanks for your comments, everyone!<br /><br /><b>Apple Valley</b>, thank you! Yes, I think the same way about my Sims. I think someone like Olivia would probably have a home birth but Lia would not. I think of her as a hospital birth kind of person. So maybe I'll start doing the hospital births for the Sims whose personality seems to fit it. I was playing around with poses a while ago and managed to get a nice picture of a Sim holding a baby while laying down on a bed, so that might work well in a hospital setting too.<br /><br /><b>Maisie</b>, Sylvia's going to have a sort of topsy-turvy first couple of years but I think she should be able to settle in nicely after that. Hopefully no permanent trauma!<br /><br />Funny you should ask that! I was actually just going to go in and rearrange the play schedule slightly so I can deal with Nick's reaction to the paternity test. It'll be a part of Abigail's family's next update.<br /><br />I still need to finish decorating the hospital. The ugly Maxis-ness of a lot of it is bothering me!<br /><br /><b>Danielle</b>, I'm interested to see what Sylvia will look like too. That Nihill chin is pretty strong in Adrienne's family but I wonder if Sylvia will end up looking more like her dad. Tate and Zelda are going to love looking after her this year. <br /><br />I'm excited to see the Lane twins grow up too. I may even cheat and sneak a peek. ;) Cordy was a really, really pretty little girl. I think that's the only pic I have of her as a toddler where you can clearly see her face. I have even fewer of Luc. :( I wasn't as good at remembering to take pictures either.<br /><br />You won't have to wait long to see Elspeth again. She's, naturally, attending Finn and Victoria's wedding, so you'll see her there.Carlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09140819019098738245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3968444616198803470.post-80697613872338009042010-06-19T12:25:27.753+10:002010-06-19T12:25:27.753+10:00Happy birthday to them all!

At least they won't have a late in life baby but still get to "satisfy" that want to have a baby around.<br /><br />I can't wait to see the Lane twins grow into their features. More Matthew than Simon because his nose is smaller. But Simon looks like he'll have a baby face for a while. And I just love that toddler pic of Cordy! She is too precious with her hair like that. Elspeth is very pretty. I can't wait to see more pics of her in her next update.Daniellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07006019503835147657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3968444616198803470.post-32858362118204813932010-06-19T11:00:38.915+10:002010-06-19T11:00:38.915+10:00Elspeth is gorgeous!

Here's hoping the best for her life. <br /><br />Are u going to do an update of Nick with paternity or just blow past that? <br /><br />Your hospital looks great!
