The flip is that moment when she stops everything to gain the pregnancy moodlet and does a twirl if she doesn't have pregnancy compatible clothing.

Clear out your caches and restart the game.   You may need to go to a save prior to her pregnancy.

Sort of, she gets the little action in the corner that says she's having the baby where it shows a blue pacifier, it like flashes in the corner then stops, her sister who got pregnant before her has had the baby and its already a day away form aging up, so I'm thinking its cause there isn't a dad for her baby.

There is but he was the heirs brother so when they moved towns they couldn't bring the brother with them so I'm thinking the game is having a problem with the fact that there's no dad in this new town because her sister who's husbands with them had no problems having a baby even though she was pregnant before they moved.

Yeah you shouldn't have gotten her pregnant before you switched towns.  Actually you weren't supposed to get anyone pregnant before switching towns.  Go back to your last save in the old town, resave the family without any pregnant women and bring them to the new town.  If you don't want to split up the heir's brother's family, have her marry him and move back into the old heir's house so that she's not in the household.

Ok then I'll do that thank you, sorry since it wasn't explicitly stated as against the rules I thought it was ok, I should have asked

Actually the rules state that as soon as you change households, if you're going to move towns you have to do it immediately.  You got extra time to see if it would fix your aging issue and it didn't so you had to move as soon as you were certain. 

Moving a house immediately to me means that you have no time to do anything prior to the move other than kick out supernaturals that needed to be removed.


Update:
Smartphone photos are the same skill and same collection as the photos taken with WA cameras.

And the University Mascot has been added to the NPC list.

Question regarding moving household to new town.  When I save household to library, do I --

a) save the household - start new game in new town - then plop household in an empty house

or

b) save the household with house - start new game in new town - plop the entire thing in an empty lot

Regarding the NPC friend requirement, do male/female dancers count as one or two types of NPC?

Thanks

The ruleset lumps them together as one NPC category:

Quote
2. The household must have 10 different NPC friends (all must have different jobs) at moving time—Maid, Repair Technician, Repoman, Baby Sitter, Adoption Service/Child Protection Worker, Pet Adoption Worker, Pizza Delivery, Butler, Bartender, Bouncer, Pianist, Burglar, Police, Firefighter, Grim Reaper, Newspaper Delivery, Mail Delivery, Science Geek, Magician, Tourist, Explorer, Paparazzi, Tattoo Artist, male/female dancers, Venue Proprietor, DJ, Acrobat, Singer, Magician, Elixir Store Consignment Specialist, Barista Bartender, University Mascot.
No respect, no chance, cease and desist when I chant-

Ok, so I started to take a whack at this (I'm a glutton for punishment).

Just to ensure I am following the rules correctly, the founding household can have more than 1 person in them, as long as it's not a generational household, and no one is a banned occult. And also, the heir must be the oldest child in the household, not just oldest of the founders (so if a housemate has a child elsewhere older than the heir, that child cannot be moved in).

Specifically, I'm looking to start with Connor Frio, but I can never move in Jared's child with Claire, even though Claire and Jared are not the heir's parents. However, I could ideally move a later heir in with Claire or the baby because Story Progression does weird things.

I for some reason just knew you would at least try this one ;)

You've got it all right so far.
