Weekly Update - Epidural Success Rate and Weight Gain After Birth
🕑 Added 2022-02-19 02:56:47 +0000 UTCHi Guys!
Hope you all had a great week!
My week was relatively good, I went through the majority of my week without running into any weird bugs but as always I wish I could get more work done, I dont have enough hours in a day š„“
This week I finalized the epidural animation and created the epidural related buffs and interactions.
When you sim arrive at the hospital, you can click on an obstetrician and "Ask for Epidural"

you will get this notification

after short wait the obstetrician will come over to your hospital bed and give you the epidural injection


after this interaction you will see tape (i hope this looks like tape, I tried ) and a small epidural catheter on your sims back. this is an indication that your sim has received epidural.

the epidural has a success rate of 80%. So it doesn't work 100 percent of the time.
if an epidural were to fail your sim will get this buff

you can then click on an obstetrician again to "Ask to Replace Epidural"

you will then see this notification

and the obstetrician will inject the epidural again.
if the epidural is placed successfully you will see this buff, which lasts 30 minutes,

then it will be replaced by this buff

I also added a weight gain system at the end of the birth so that your sim will be slightly heavier than they were before giving birth. here is a comparison photo. I didnt want the difference to be too dramatic so I hope this looks good to you guys.

I really want to finish up the natural birth within next week so that I can get started with c section as soon as I can. I still have to do the dilation system and the "check for dilation" interaction+animation, as well as some social interactions.
Once again thank you all for your kind comments and your encouragement š„ŗ you guys are literally my motivation and I really hope this mod will meet your expectations!

The tape/bandage and the small catheter on the back of the patient after the epidural looks good to me.

This is so awesome :)

OMG I LOVE that you included the chance of it not working, not only that, but that only half the side is numb and the other isn't!! This was my real-life experience with my last child and it was not a good thing! But it makes it that much more realistic to thank you soooo much for all the seemingly little things because they, in fact, can be real-life experiences. This makes me personally feel included in ways I thought I was totally alone in! My oldest and I are so ecstatic for this mod! I can't thank you enough! :) I wish I could have asked for a re-do! LOL

This looks incredible! š¤©Iād been dying for a realistic birth mod for years! Thanks so much for taking the time and effort to make this so detailed š Also, I love the idea of the sim gaining weight after birth, but is it possible for the weight gain to be gradual over a period of time after the birth or optional?
Temi Adeyeye

you are a genius! EA could use your talents, that's for sure.
Janni Nielsen
This looks to be one of my must have mods! You have my full respect in this huge project. It looks incredible! ā¤ļø The slight weight gain, is absolutely brilliant, it's a natural reaction after birth, also that your hips gets slightly wider. A thumbs up for that. ššKeep up your stunning work.
