🍼 Realistic Postpartum Recovery — BETA
The Sims 4 gives you the birth… and then acts like nothing happened. This mod fills in the fourth trimester, a moodlet-driven recovery that treats vaginal and C-section births differently, reacts to how you play, and lets your Sim's partner feel it too.
⚠️ BETA — BUG-TESTING PHASE. Stable and fully playable, but you'll be helping me test. If something looks off, grab Postpartum_Log.txt from your Mods folder and tell me. Or better excecptions log if you get any notifications or glitches. 💛
🤰 Choose your delivery — a post-birth prompt for vaginal vs C-section; each has its own symptoms, and C-section heals slower.
🩹 A real timeline — ~1 week (adjustable); symptoms rotate over the fourth trimester (acute early, lingering late)
🏥 Off-lot check-up — pregnant sim actually leaves for the doctor (a proper, cancel-proof rabbit hole) and comes home cleared.
🚑 Complications — WooHooing before clearance risks bleeding, a setback, or infection. Meaningful, never deadly.
💧 Pelvic-floor leaks — laughing/exercising can cause a little "Oops…" leak
🍼 Take it easy — lifting a toddler/infant gives an "Overdid It" moodlet
❤️ The partner feels it — co-parent/spouse gets Worried, Running on Empty, and Proud, deepening to Worried Sick on complications, and Relieved & Proud when the pregnant sim is cleared.
⚙️ Custom icons · Off/Light/Realistic/Extended presets · adjustable everything · fully standalone · per-save.
