Once you own the pump, set it next to the birdbath, With help from a second person, lift the birdbath slowly up and place down on top of pump.

If your adult peeps die with no children-the game ends and you start a new one.

I had the same problem. Into my 12th generation and could not get any children. All attempts were unsuccessful. They would also bicker something terrible. The last time, she was 49 and I figured it was the end of the game, they started bickering when I tried to mate them, and I got so mad, I took the red glove and beat them both 3 times each with it. Then I tried mating them again and success, they had a little boy. Not sure if it was a result of the scolding I gae them, or not. Right now he's 18 and ready to go to college; his father passed yesterday and his mother passed today, so I'm ready to go into my 13th generation.

That is way cool Lost!
Here's some oddities I've noticed.

1. I still don't have all 4 collections complete after 7-10 generations ~sigh~
2. I still don't have any families that have had both twins or triplets - one of the other but not both
3. I had an earthquake 2 generations ago and have yet to see a floor repair kit ~sigh~
4. The oldest couple to have a baby (thank God!!!) was 49 & 51... thought I was going to have to start over.
5. I still don't have ONE family to have a 'perfect match' for marriage.

I'm going to try the red glove next time I have an issue with the no baby issue.

How many people out there actually have a 'perfect match'? I'm beginning to think I'm never going to get all the trophies!

AzFreebird-Careful of the red glove-I almost never use it. It was the bickering that got me to use it. They both wanted children and here she was 49 and they still didn't have any. It didn't make sense. And when they started bickering when I tried to mate them, I just lost it. Then when I put them together, they had a baby; or I would have ended the game without completing the trophies. That was two generations ago.

I've got 2 more pieces of trick candy (salty candy) to give out and I hate to give them out-LOL;

still have to find a horse fly and a dragon fly (14 generations and haven't been able to find either one-just now found the yellow and brown butterfly) and once I've found those two-all my collections will be complete;

still have to cure someone who is gravely ill; and

last but not least, have 10 more weeds to pick.

Right now my Momma (Wiki) is 63, has lost her husband and her two children are in college and I'm trying to figure out how to keep her alive. LOL She really is a nice lady and I hate to see her go........I just know she's going to be gone by tomorrow. Her husband died at 61.

I wonder why they all die at 65 or less. My goodness. Those game developers should know that you retire at 65, not die. The developers must be all young whipper-snappers. I'm 73 myself [in real life] so I kind of resent that they let them pass away so young. *Grin

Wow! Fourteen generations and you haven't completed all of the collections? It's really annoying because I've almost completed one of my collections but the one I need never shows up!

Hiyas Az ~
1) I don't have all 4 collections yet - I can't get that elusive dragonfly to show up (and I keep it raining as much as possible to get the bugs)

2).For twins or triplets give both the man and woman a shot OR give the woman or man 2 shots !! Thats what got me 2 sets of twins in the 1st family and the 2cd had triplets after that though (these were 2 games running at the same time) I could only get 1 or 2 kids out of them! In the next generations they haven't had more than 3..but I got 6 kids out of my 1st generation of both games

3) I finally learned how to get the floor repair kit from the 1st game running - I would put the family members ON the spot to be repaired over and over again (not going to the store first) and *then* go to the store - if I didn't get it on the first visit to the store I hit control R after an hour and 1/2 and the store will refresh - then you *should* get the repair kit for the floor !

4) Lucky You! My families when they reach the age of 49-50 just won't have kids *but* I have read where one person got a 68 and 70 yr old male with a 62 yr old female had a child ! Geez they would die on me before the kid went to college LOL

5) I dont' have the perfect match yet but thats because I don't keep refusing to marry them off right away - the thought of waiting until the lil person is 40 before I find someone with the same job is just downright unnerving to me LOL

Happy Gaming - I hope this helps some & if anyone knows where that dragonfly pops up plz let me know !! I am at 96 of all the awards and only a few away from getting the wrappers, socks and dirt smudges then all thats left is that dragonfly !!!

You will not get twins or triplets from them baby boosts. It is comepletely random.

Happy gaming

I had a 68 year old widow who adopted a 3 year old that came to the door. The mother died three years later, leaving a 6 year old alone in the house! Then when the child was 8, i noticed she was sitting on the patio "celebrating the new baby" with a bottle of champagne on the table! LOL

Yes in the laundry room there is a bucked with a plunger and other items in it, drag you person ontop of it and they will fix the clogged shower and toilet

Once the baby is two (he/she will be able to walk) the mother can go back to work.

I think it's pretty random. I only have two families going both first generations (just started playing this month). My first couple had a baby girl mom was 37 and dad was 39 (I waited until mom and dad had been promoted a few times) then adopted 3 year old at 42/44. My second couple had triplets first attempt mom was 22 and dad 24. I've never tried the baby boost.

In other forums it seems to be the luck of the draw.



My first generation couple (Brett and Sarah) had a boy at ages 26/28 and anohter one at 28/30 then at 30/32 they had triplet boys after that they had two more boys (6 boys in all). Having twins or triplets is luck. Sometimes it happens others it doesn't. I also think it is based on genetics because in one of my families they have twins every other generation!

Let them get a full nights sleep!!! After 7:45 pm do NOT log on until morning or 8 hours later. In the morning your people will be energized. This cycle will repeat for the rest of there lives. They sort of have the same schedule as you: Awake during the day, sleep at night
