I just had an interesting labor experience for one of my Sims. She was playing chess with her sister-in-law when I got the notice that the baby's coming. When I clicked over to her, she was just sitting at the chess table calmly playing. Neither of them stopped or did the freak out thing. On and on it went, just playing chess. They I saw the icon that she was actually having the baby. Still playing chess. (Note here that I had directed both of them to play chess and Sims don't stop what their doing in that situation until you tell them to.) When I finally released her from chess, she stood up, had one labor pain, and then the baby was there! Very painless and easy! And funny!!
