Having Children in The Sims 2 (Nintendo DS): Not a Feature

You cannot have babies or children in The Sims 2 on Nintendo DS.

The DS version is a stripped-down port focused on:

• Direct control of one Sim (not household).
• Social interactions, needs, skills, career.
• Furnishing a single apartment.
• DS-specific: Touchscreen minigames (cooking, repair), microphone (blow out candles).

Missing from DS (vs PC)

Aging, genetics, pregnancy, babies, toddlers, children, teens, multiple generations, neighborhood view, build mode (walls/floors), aspiration rewards.

For the full family experience, play The Sims 2 on PC (with expansions) or The Sims 4 (free base game on PC/PS4/PS5/Xbox).
