The method of making babies is very interesting in these virtual games. I know the game creators have to be careful how they go about designing something like this because they don't want to offend players, seeing it is a family game.

I had one kid jumping on his parents' bed while Mom and Dad were trying to make a baby. I suppose I should have sent the kid out of the room but, since making a baby in the virtual world doesn't seem to require the removal of clothes or any physical contact other than kissing, I guess the kids aren't seeing anything they are too young to see.

One time, I even had one parent stand next to the bed while the other one stood on the bed and kissed the air. Result--twins!

Wow. That's weird. You're sooo lucky you got twins. I'm still waiting for my first baby to become two...how long does that take?

I got triplets on the first try with a couple that were on opposite ends of the "baby wanting" scale. They now have 6 kids! (See the thread I started entitled "I Guess She Showed Him".)

LOL, when I first read this I thought you were waiting for your first child to become two children. Then I realized you meant age. Ha ha

Haven't gotten anything but single babies and have started about 10 games. Some I deleted.

So how long does it take?

No idea

If the baby making is successfull you get a baby right away. If you did not get a baby it means they were not successfull and you will have to try again. If it says "too soon" then wait a few minutes and retry. If they argue about it just keep dropping them on each other over and over again until they head to the bedroom.

And when they are arguing, I seem to have noticed that if you alternate dropping them on each other--her on him, then him on her--they tend to give in and try for a baby sooner.

I agree, I have noticed that too.
