Resolved Wife doesn't get pregnant.

[CoJoIsMyMoJo]

I've been with the for a number of years. I've tried carrying her in my party, I've tried waiting in a town, and I've tried assigning her a role as governor of one of my cities and still nothing. I have no idea what's going on so any help on it would be appreciated.

Is she 45 or older? Last I read their chance at pregnancy starts at 13% at age 18, reduces as they age until 0% at 45.

No she was 25 when we got married and now she's 30 nothing still....

No I didn't disable it so that's what has me confused

Have you tried waiting at least 10 day in settlement with her?
Try 10 days then re-load and try a couple times.
The chance is low enough that just waiting a few night at a time you could have bad luck.

yes its sad sometimes you need to wait and re load as it seems to just get stuck

They just need to add in like Viking Conquest an addition to topics to talk to the wife
"let me show you how much I love you".

For the record sometimes I've gone years wtih the same woman and not getting lucky so to speak, and then pop, suddenly she starts haveing so many I have to keep her in a seperate party.

This typically have occured when she hits 25.
Before that at 21 her starting age and up until then, nothing.

Did you marry her before you rescued your brother? If you marry her after then there's a good chance you got the bug where she thinks she's married to both you AND him. I started marrying my phaea via console command because i leveled my characters so fast the quest kept hitting me before I was ready, and if you let the rescue quest sit it bugs out completely

is there anything else to do than to have your wife in your party? if there is, please tell us what it is, it s like playing a game blindfolded trying to figure out the basic mechanic of the game, what the heck did you do again with the pregnancy system... I ve been waiting doing nothing in a town for ages and no pregnancy, nothing. there is no way to understand this game ... it s going in one direction then all the way in the other direction on the next patch and so on. we have no idea how to play this game anymore. I really don't understand how you are working on this game.

I've figured out a few other things that helps the rng-chance for me atleast.
1. get married to her before rescuing your brother. When you get the finalize marriage, he is not on it.
Note that most of the time now since patch 1.55 and 1.56 haveing the brother in the bartermenu have no effect besides the "annoyance of it showing up".

2. For me the real fix was back in the day, when I uninstalled the game, then I manually went into the subfolders on my machine and deleted all files, includeing saves, and started from scratch.(my take is that it may be some old redundant files that causes corruption perhaps).
(note this I feel is like a more extreme solution, but it worked for me).

3. This seems to be one of the things they havent communicated well since 1.55 is that it seems that you need to have a fief of your own.
I noticed this the last plays where I've been trying other avenues, trader with no ties, when I've been mercenary for any faction at war with Khuzait to stop their domination of Calradia.
Soon as I stopped that, and got vassalised, got my own fief, first nite in it - boom pregnant.
My character was then like 25+(so several years of being married to the wife, as I got her at 21..)

4. Increase relationship with wife, play games. Make her the lead of a party of yours, then trade say 10 horses, should boost it abit.
So she'll be friendly with that creepy smile they all get(this is something I'm still not 100% sure if helps, as I've not tested this part seperatly).

I've said before in this type of threads(I've been buzy in them, cause this lead to such much frustration for me) that they just need to add in a feature like Viking Conquest where you tell your wife "I want to show you my love" and boom its on.

They really should increase the pregnancy chance. It's not like the characters have access to contraceptives or Planned Parenthood.

The problem though, is when the ball goes rolling, it really can get rolling..

I got 3 kids in the age range of 1 & 0 & 0..
Then I just "had to park" her in the castle to be governor.

Again why they perhaps should in terms of the player give the "control" where you can do again like Viking Conquest "show you how much I love you" to get the dirty deed done.

All you're supposed to have to do is wait(through daily ticks) in the same time settlement as wife, in you party, with her as governor, or her put in keep/tavern all should work. However sometimes there is a bug where the game think your party members are 'traveling' instead of staying in the settlement, so putting wife in tavern (use + button) or keep or as governor should get the game to recognize them as staying.

But the chance will drop down and after 4 it takes a lot more effort (waiting and reloading) to make more

Nope I made them before a owning fief in both 1.5.5 and .1.5.6 if it's changed we need a Dev to tells us

Nope doesn't matter, made 10 with 0 relation.

This havent directly been stated as such, but in other of theese posts there have been devs that have said "try waiting in a fief you own" or something similar.

Again I've just done things that work for me when I have the issue.

I'm just shareing the things that have had some effect on my plays, yours may differ and it may just have been luck(but its kind of not directly luck I'd say when you can replicate the experiment each time )

Thats why I'm *****ing though to let us have some direct control in the matter with similar system that was in Viking Conquest or the mods already offer(I dont use mod until the games go retail, just to have vanilla errors/issues to report on).

alright, I did put my wife in a settlement with the + button, then I waited a bit and it worked alright. few days and she was pregnant. thanks a lot. I managed to spawn a small battalion already, waiting for it to mature. I still think waiting in a settlement to get it done is a bit tedious (it s not like there is anything to do there). but I understand that spawning an army is also a problem.

Yeah I preferred the original way where it had no conditions, but people complained about it because their wife got preggers when they were far away for a long time
I'd like to find them in a cabbage patch or as rare loot too !
