Yes, I always praise the peep when they are at the beginning of the action because of that reason. After jumping up and down they will restart the action. If you catch them early enough little time is wasted.

Same thing happens to me.

What I usually do is (this is going to sound real crazy and addicted, but... anyway) once they have the baby I see the time it is and add 4 hours (the baby's due time). After 4 hours I return to the game to feed them (and the baby boy or girl) and also to open the game after the birth - that way I can be sure that in about 1 hour (sometimes more than that, sometimes less) I can try new babies.

If there is one thing I don't like about the game is this thing. Sometimes the child is like 5 years old and they still say it's too soon to try another on.

Yes, my guy said "no way" to children but of course I made them anyway. They had 3 and I adopted another one and she's now 7. They STILL say it's "too early" b/c I think it's the guy not wanting them in the 1st place. Hey! Us woman want children we should be able too!! The guy doesn't do anything anyway!!!

The people that want to have children will be able to have them sooner than a couple with someone who has a "no way". I've had a couple who kept on saying it's too soon until the child is 5 while others will have them much sooner.

If they do decide to try for a baby again and it fails, it again depends on their status for wanting children to determine when they'll try again. This can be 15-45 minutes.
