The Sims 4 Woohoo & Try for Baby Guide
Where Sims can Woohoo, and how to Make Woohoo Option Appear
The Sims 4's Woohoo can be performed in a few locations
Woohoo is the ultimate expression of love in The Sims 4, that is, unless you're going for the Serial Romantic Aspiration. The Woohoo interaction, along with Try for Baby, is a fun relationship booster that appears once a Sim couple has enough Romantic Relationship built up (the bottom, pink bar). Woohoo will make Sims happy in that it gives a 4h moodlet and raises Fun and Social needs, though slightly decreases hygiene. In this Guide, we'll reveal factors that affect likelihood of a successful Woohoo and where Sims can do it.
Woohoo Requirements Woohoo is available to all Sims Young Adult and up, and may be performed between any combinations of gender. Sims can also Woohoo with Ghosts, and there is actually an achievement for that, along with a couple of others related to Woohoo that are listed below. Teen Sims do not get Woohoo, but are able to Mess Around. The mechanics for that are similar to Woohoo. Sims need to have a relationship standing of around 40-50% in Romance to get it to appear. If two Sims are Married, Engaged, or Girlfriend/Boyfriend they should always have the option. The higher your relationship with them, the more likely they are to accept. There are other factors as well:
The Rocket has a special Woohoo Animation
Boosting Woohoo Success, and Factors that Lower it Sims who have a high Charisma Skill are more likely to have their Woohoo interaction accepted by another Sim. Additionally, those with the Alluring Trait are 20% more likely to find success and have a +2 effective Charisma Skill Level. You get this trait by choosing a Love Aspiration when creating the Sim. Moods also affect it. Flirty has the biggest impact, while Playful and Happy is also helpful. If a Sim is Sad, Angry, Embarrassed, Stressed, or Bored, they are less likely to engage in Woohoo with your Sim. See the Romance Guide for more detailed info. When they're in a bad mood, improve it somehow, by filling their needs or cheering them up with a social, then try to Woohoo! You can learn more on improving Relationship standing with a Sim in the Relationships and Making Friends in The Sims 4 Guide.
Try for Baby
Try for Baby is the means of getting Pregnant in The Sims 4. In the game code, there's no mention of regular Woohoo causing Pregnancy, although players have reported it happening. Sims should accept this interaction as often as they accept an invitation to Woohoo. The base chance to get Pregnant from the Try for Baby interaction is the same for any location: 80%. If your Sim has the Fertile Reward, this jumps to 150%, which presumably greatly increases the likelihood of having Twins or Triplets. Learn more about Babies and Pregnancy Here.

Woohoo can also be done in the Rocket Ship and Observatory
Where to Woohoo
Here are the Woohoo locations for The Sims 4. Where you can do it depends upon which Expansion packs you own. If none of these are on the current lot, the Woohoo option will not come up no matter how high your Sims' relationship is For the Base game, you are able to Woohoo on or in the following objects:
A Double Bed - This just means you have to have one large enough, so a single bed won't do.
The Rocket Ship - Once built, just click it and Woohoo With... will appear, assuming they are willing to try this!
The Observatory - Woohoo in this one is not very special, but the Sims seem to enjoy it.
A Sim celebrates after Woohooing for the First time
How to Woohoo
In order to build up to Woohoo, you should use low-risk Romantic Interactions on the target Sim. Things like Hug, Pick-Up Line, Ask if Single, and Flirt are less likely to be rejected than Kiss, Caress, and things like that. Build up to those, and know that a higher friendship level (40% - Friends) will help as well. Look to get the Sim in a Flirty mood, and once the interaction is available, and you've got a Bed, Rocket Ship or Observatory on the lot, try to Woohoo! If your Sim meets another on a public lot, you can use Travel Here With.. to go home, or even invite them on a Date to your Sim's home. Getting Gold on a Date will give your Sim the VIP Bucket in the household inventory. This object is great for the living room or bedroom, as it has a Flirty Aura. You can learn more about getting Flirty here.
Woohoo in a Rocket will give your save an Achievement
Woohoo Achievements Your save file can get Achievements related to Woohoo. Those available in the Sims 4 base game are:

I have found that I have had mostly girls when having WooHoo in a rocket or sauna, however in a hot tub or observatory I have had mostly boys. The double bed is usually 50-50. I don't know if this is deliberate, or weather it is just coincidence, however a few of my friends have claimed it has happened to them.
After you said this, I did look into it. I found that a few people have claimed the same or similar things, however, there is nothing in the code. It has a high chance of being just a coincidence, but there is a slight chance it could be a sort of glitch. By that, I mean that it is not a negative error with the game (unlike some glitches), that it is something that isn't in the coding but may happen due to crashing coding. If you are finding this and want to get a 50-50 result, I of corse recommend using the bed, despite it not being as exciting as others. Megan
You know when your very flirty is over +20 because you've just met them got up to best friends, first kiss & woohoo, got in a relationship engaged, titillating banter, maxed happiness, that flirty suit and just in a general good mood... Yeah... All in less than 6 hours :D
Love Sims 4, love getting pregnant, love adopting, love babies, love children, love teens, love young adults, love adults, love elders. Yeah. I love Sims 4, in case you hsdn't guessed
I love it when my character got pregnant :) And I always make a nursery for the child! I even called my twins Austin and Anna! What did you call your kids ??
thats actually really creepy. My aunt and uncle named their kids austin and anna in real life. anna died a while ago. but austins still around- hes somewhere in his 35-40s now
My sims tried for baby and I used the pregnancy test after and staight after it said Se was expecting she blew up like a ballon, her stomach immediately got big, what does that mean?
This may be a bit late but if you take the pregnancy test you become pregnant straight away but if you don't it takes a couple of days before you begin the first trimester
If you have Get Together you can place a closet in a community lot or the woohoo bush. Or even make a bedroom on a community lot and place a double bed in there and use that. Or if you have Outdoor Retreat you could place a tent and click on that and woohoo on a community lot. Also you could place the observatory (Gigantic telescope thing) in one of the parks.
Curiously enough, when my current pair of Sims first WooHooed (not my first Sims, granted), they did so in a Rocket Ship - just WooHooing, not even Trying for Baby - and ended up with a baby girl and a baby boy (twins) as a result. First time any of my Sims have been knocked up from WooHooing, and the first time my Sims have had twins in TS4... is there any sort of connection between WooHooing in a Rocket Ship and pregnancy? Or even twins?
From what I've heard, there's about a 10% chance of a sim getting pregnant from regular woohoo. Its hapened to some YouTubers I watch but never to me personally
This 10% speculation is because in 2014 just before the game first launched there was a discussion about a 10% chance of getting pregnant with ordinary woohoo, this was nerfed due to the community in general hating the feature, so the game launched without it. There is no indication in the code that this is even possible ...without mods of course.
I've taken the grim reaper and a ghost from the gallery lol and I'm trying to let them have a baby but try for a baby won't appear only woo hoo why is that ?
There are no romantic socials available on The Grim Reaper apart from flirt, offer rose etc. Woohooing is not an option. Also there are no ghost babies in The Sims 4.
I have two young adult sims with near-full relationship. They couldn't seem to woohoo so I made them bf/gf, and they STILL can't woohoo. Not in any of 3 double beds or a rocket. One of them is non-committal so I'm guessing that may be the problem, but by any chance would anyone know if that is the problem or if there's any way I can get them to woohoo (specifically try for baby) without cheats or mods?
Are you currently using any mods? If so remove them and then delete the localthumbcache.package file and try your game again. Is the option to 'woohoo' there in the romantic socials options?
The sim (if she is a controlled sim) can take a pregnancy test by clicking on the toilet. If you do not control her you will need to wait a day and then see if her stomach looks larger! Often the pregnant sim will throw up so if you see that after try for baby then that generally is a good indicator that the sim is pregnant.
Recently, my sims got married and for their honeymoon, I made them go camping. In the tent, they were able to woohoo but not try for baby. The option did appear and it was in the q ( sorry, I don't know how to spell q) but they just waved their arms about and then it disappeared out the q. Anyone know why this is?
Generally this indicates a pathing/routing issue. perhaps picking up the tent and moving it slightly would solve it. Also check your settings in CAS. Make sure you have one sim set to 'can get others pregnant' and one sim set to 'can get pregnant'.
I have a little problem.When Sims doing WooHoo and they end one of them is unsatisfied and the other is happy.How do I achieve that they were both satisfied??
Make sure your game is up to date with the latest patch as this sounds like a bug that was fixed in a patch ages ago. Try having both your sims very flirty.
The devs tell us that there is zero chance for pregnancy by just choosing the 'woohoo' option.There is a trick/exploit that seems to work reliably when I use it. Keep trying for a baby 3 or 4 times in a row even after the sim appears to be feeling like throwing up and/or has baby thought bubbles. Sometimes if you keep trying for baby before you do a pregnancy test (and therefore before you have a confirmed pregnancy) over and over your sim has twins. Once you have a confirmed pregnancy though... it is set and no amount of trying for a baby will make your sim have twins. It might work... give it a go and see what happens. Good luck.
First off, you can't get pregnant by just woohooing. However if you get the Fertility Treatment in the lifetime rewards you have more of a chance of having twins and triplets.
Well.. luckily I have played Free Play so I can answer you, lol. Basically you just direct a married couple to woohoo when on a lot with no bed. There's a super guide to Free Play here. Click.
Sorry for all the questions but my sims are married but the option for "try for a baby" are not showing up. I am in the process of having a baby because I clicked on the crib. Not because the parents woohooed. Is this because I have the freeplay version?
I haven't played Free Play that extensively but if I remember correctly the sims relationship level for romance needs to be maxed out for the married couple to be able to try for children. All those answers are on the Guide to FreePlay that I linked you to in the other post. That is where I found all my answers to Free Play. Here's the link again The Girl Who Games - Free Play
Free Play is an entirely different game to The Sims 4, they do not share any game play features at all and the linked guide is the best guide to Free Play that I have personally found.
So am gonna tell you an odd tale. One of my male sim who is a young adult got abducted by aliens and after returning he is now pregnant. So I was wondering how alien pregnancy works or how many days it takes to give birth. The poor boy looks scared and idk if I should be amused or feel sorry for him
Alright my woohoo is not working? When I click the woohoo button nothing at all happens, usually when there is a reason as to why a sim can't do something, there is an X on their task bar. But when I click woohoo it just disappears and time skips 1 sim minute. I'm not going to lie, I had whickedwims, and I deleted it and all the animations hoping I could just go back to woohooing but now woohoo is not working at all in anyway, neither will try for a baby.. Is there anything I could do?
You will need to delete the localthumbcache.package file from the Sims 4 folder and maybe also repair your game in Origin. Also make sure you have deleted the WW folder from within the Saves folder. You might also want to do a Factory Reset
Hey If my sim is a man and I want to get the whole town pregnant will it work or do you have to play each woman? So basically will the women get pregnant if they are not the played character?
Yes unplayed female sims will get pregnant. In fact depending on the settings in CAS any gendered unplayed sim can get pregnant. You just have to have the settings to 'can get pregnant' for that sim. Female game-generated sims have this setting by default. Note this is in a vanilla game with no mods. Many mods change this functionality.
I have a teen girl in her own home. I built her romance up all the way with a teen boy and installed WickedWhims. I can get them to WooHoo all the time but I can't get the Try for Bab option and she won't get pregnant. How do I make her a teen mom? Also, I can't install any mods cuase I can't find the mods folder in the game. Where is that?
You'll need to ask Turbodriver himself about the issues you're having with his mod. For help installing mods read Carl's guide on this Here (click) Installing and Downloading Mods
I discovered yesterday, that in Sims 4 Seasons, if you rake the leaves high enough, you can actually get your Sims to Woohoo in that pile of leaves, because... Sim logic?
(sorry my English is bad) I want to ask something. My young adult sim get pregnant by my teen sim, what will happen to the baby? It happened because I forgot that my teen sim has a partner, I accidentally turn him to teen again.
I was playing with a woman (young adult) and her bf (also young adult), both of them are spellcasters.I I wanted to try for baby, but i couldn't find the option.I kept looking on the internet and STILL didn't find it out.Do you know why?As i was searching on this website .i was about to click on "The Sims 4 Woohoo and Try for Baby Guide" but before i read the small fragment underneath and it said something about the new pack and the option, but it was all separated by :".." .I read the articles multiple times to see if i was missing something but still couldn't find anything.please help?:/
The article looks fine to me so not sure what you are meaning but sims need a high enough romantic relationship before woohoo and try for baby options unlock
I've been trying to get the try for baby option and both my sims have maxxed out relationship bars, both of them. i've done woohoo several times and still nothing. help?

My young adult sim get pregnant by my teen sim, what will happen to the baby?
It happened because I forgot that my teen sim has a partner, I accidentally turn him to teen again.

I've been trying to get the try for baby option and both my sims have maxxed out relationship bars, both of them. i've done woohoo several times and still nothing. help?
It's RNG luck. So if you are not using any other mods that interfere with making babies then perseverance is the only option.
Ok possibly dumb question... I have heard rumors of a bush you can woohoo in but cant find it. Is it in a mod?
The woohoo bush came with Get Together but another version was also released with Island Living
so I made my sims try a baby with his girlfriend, and after that mostly she always appear to be sad. But I don't want to bother to add her to the family since, I just... lazy? Why is that?
Sims with the trait Family Oriented can get sad after unsuccessfully trying for a baby. So perhaps your sims girlfriend has this trait.
