The makers of The Sims Freeplay have recently increased the amount of sims needed to complete the support tasks in pregnancy events, they were hard enough anyway so I wanted to see if it was possible to complete a 9 day pregnancy event now. Below you can find a list of the daily goals and support tasks I had to complete each day and my times for completing them but firstly I wanted to share some tips on how to complete pregnancy events in the time limit to earn the baby bonus.
Check out my Guide to Pregnancy if you want to know more about how to start pregnancy events

Tips for Completing Pregnancy Events:
- Start the pregnancy event at a time you will be able to open the game every day, for example if you start at 6pm on the Thursday you will need to complete all the goals for day 1 before 6pm on the Friday to keep on track and because you have 24 hours if you can start the next day at exactly 6pm you have a better chance of completing the goals in the 24 hour period.
- Complete the daily goals in the order best for you, you don’t have to complete them in the order shown so take a look at each daily goal on the list (stuck on how to complete a daily goal? click here to see my list of daily goals and support tasks)- if you can check back soon do a short one but if you are going to bed do a longer one
- Have as many sims as possible completing the support tasks at the same time (they have made this so much harder recently by increasing the amount of sims needed) if the task needs 15 sims then if you have 15 sims free make sure you use them all to complete the task at the same time (don’t use the pregnant sim though, they need to complete all the daily goals) make sure you check a few times that you have enough sims completing the task so you don’t have to waste any time redoing the task for one sim you missed!
- Have all your sims completing the support tasks in the same two houses with all the items you need, this way you aren’t wasting any time between tasks:

- Set a timer on your phone for when the task will complete so you know when to check back in and start the next one
- Use 3 star items (if possible) 3 star items give you the shortest amount of time to complete the task (I was using 2 star computers and phones for the support tasks but you will save yourself a few minutes if you can use only 3 star items)
- Keep an eye on the support tasks milestones bar, it should be in line with where you are on the daily goals so you know you are on track:

I have documented my experience completing a pregnancy event below to give you some idea of the sort of goals you will get but remember that the tasks and times will differ for you, you will get any combination of goals from this list
ST= Support Tasks (these tasks are completed by any sim, all these have to be completed a number of times)
DG= Daily Goals (these have to be completed by the pregnant sim)
Day 1– 9:12am
ST– Sew Clothes: 15 times-3 hours 20 minutes
I was completing the Daring Do’s Event so I had to stop this with most of my sims to start the support tasks
DG– Consider Simvitation designs for the baby shower on a couch- 1 hour
10:13am DG– Throw up in a toilet. Thank you morning sickness!- 1 hour 50 minutes

This task required 16 pairs of sims (32 sims in total) which is more sims than I had available and more sims than most people have in their town! I had to use another sim who was completing the Daring Do’s Event to have 8 pairs of sims completing this this time around. I am already frustrated with how ridiculous they have made this task, this was before the patch update that was meant to make this task easier but you will see later on after the patch was meant to happen I got the exact same task again
3:31pm DG– Relax on a couch and consider baby names- 2 hours 40 minutes
5:17pm ST– 8 sims finished ‘Share parenting advice with another sim’, need to complete 8 more times now

This was the day I was completely fed up with this pregnancy event, I always get the short tasks when I want to sleep and when I wake in the morning I get long tasks!! You may have seen me post my frustration on Instagram and Twitter:

Total time taken to complete all the Daily Goals for Day 6: 21 hours 45 minutes

AGAIN this task required 16 pairs of sims (32 sims in total) which is more sims than I had available and more sims than most people have in their town! I got this goal after the patch update was meant to be released so I am annoyed that it still requires so many sims, I’m guessing they only changed it for those who needed 20 sims to complete this task. 16 pairs of sims is still unreasonable and I am still going to need to complete this twice! I put 10 pairs of sims on to complete this so let’s just hope it doesn’t glitch this time!!

I am completely amazed that I actually managed to complete this pregnancy event in the time limit, it was a very long 9 days and to be honest I was a bit fed up with the whole thing from day 1 when I got the share parenting advice goal and my annoyance continued throughout the week especially each time I woke up in the middle of the night to complete a task. I was able to complete this event without any SP as I could freely check the game most of the time during the 9 days, if I was having a normal week then this would not have been at all possible. For the average player I just cannot see how this is at all achievable, it was bad enough before but now they have increased the amount of sims needed for all the support tasks and increased the cost of the Doctor’s appointments and Yoga Sessions it seems to be impossible without spending SP- which is obviously the point! I don’t know what is going on at EA right now but this game is becoming as money grabbing as The Sims Mobile, I know that they need to make money to pay their staff but making events impossible pushes players away, it does not make them spend money.
Will I be completing another Pregnancy Event anytime soon? No! I think I might actually dislike them more than live events and that is saying something!
Baby Bonus Explained
As I completed all the Daily Goals and Support Tasks in the time limit my new baby has earned the baby bonus which means they complete actions faster and earn more XP and they also don’t suffer from low motives which means if they won’t be grumpy if their needs haven’t been fulfilled. They keep these bonuses for life and you can tell if a sim has the baby bonus as there is a gold ring around their picture on the simtracker:
