Postpartum Depression Mod - V1.1

Happy New Year's Eve! I'm dropping off some super tiny mods and a debug build meant for some of my hardcore History Simmer frens. I've had these mods around for a while, so they're not all that recent or exciting, sorry.

 UPDATE: French Translation by Candyman ( https://www.candyman.fr/ ) added! Thank you! 

First up has to do with BABIES! You know, like Baby New Year? I am so clever :p


This mod adds the chance for parents to experience Postpartum Depression after having a baby. In real life, about 50-75% parents experience Postpartum Depression; in game, this chance is 45% (while it still may seem like a lot, believe me, unless you're doing 100 baby challenge rapidfire, it won't happen too often.) 

This is a +10 sad buff that lasts 3 days, but it can be decreased by actions that normally decrease sad buffs, like calling the Sadness Hotline.


This mod alters the "buff_HadBaby" and "buff_HadBaby_Male" xmls, but should a major incompatibility arise, I am open to overhaul the mod with all new tuning + a script.

Yes, but a patch is coming next week, so there's a bit of a "we'll see" factor.

Does this work with adeepindigo's Family Therapy, GTW Health Overhaul, and Healthcare Redux?

There are no conflicts with those mods, but not really any integration that I know of. I am thinking about maybe revamping this mod a little for integrations to possibly take place in the future, though.

Would this mod conflict with WhooHoo Wellness?

I have both this mod and woohoo wellness and I have not seen any conflicts 😊

This looks like a great mod! Do you know if your mod is safe to use with LittleMsSam's mods that affect pregnancy and birth?

Yup, I use most of her pregnancy related mods other than the belly size edit and haven't seen any issue

First of all Happy New Year, Nate ;) I wish you a great new year 2020. Secondly thank you very much for your new mods like this but also for the "Preventable Diseases" for historical simmers. This is a great idea and a perfect mod for me as a storyteller for fantasy/medieval/castaway stories. Thank you very much and best regards from Austria *waves*
