I just had three moms give birth with nursing times of 480 minutes instead of 240. The population only went up by one with each birth, & they are only holding one baby each so I don't think twins having anything to do with it. The "nursing for:" minutes are going down at a normal rate. Any ideas? (Note: speed is set to 2X, but it was before too when beginning nursing times were only 240 minutes, and I haven't messed with my computer's clock.) Thanks in advance.

That's odd. My moms only nurse for 120 or so minutes and my game is set at 2x, too.

Wow, I couldn't remember if it was 120 or 240, but I knew 480 was way too long. It's kind of a drag, especially since it's all three - they're just ten minutes apart.

My bad... It was set to 1/2x. Ack! I don't even know how I did that. I switched it back to 2x and the nursing times went from about 260 to 60 minutes. (I'm a Newbie, what can I say?)
Thanks for your response though, sockpuppet

That's ok, I forgot I had set the time for normal one weekend and when I saw the nursing mother time I got a shock until I remembered what I had done. I have been playing for over a month!
