So I've gotten back to this game after a couple of months away and I would like to know how to trigger the pregnancy event. I've just married Popuri. I've read guides but they seem to be contradictory in nature. Some say talk to her everyday, others say give her gifts. Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you.

By giving gifts and talking they actually mean keeping their love points high, after a few months of that, they'll be pregnant.

So will talking alone do it or do I need to also give her gifts?

Just give her gifts to maintain her happiness. And like other HM games she will get pregnant on her own. I've read that you can speed up the process if you give her a gift for 30 consecutive days. When she's close to pregnancy her dialogue will change a bit. She will say shes Hungry or isn't feeling well. When your wife tells you shes sick you can ignore the situation and one day your wife will tell you she has lost her energy. She will then tell you she is pregnant the next day ( I heard this causes her to lose affection points). OR When she tells you shes sick you can go to the clinic and get the doctor.

So Roughly:
-Marriage-
(30 Days Later)
-Dialogue changes to "Im not feeling well" or "Im Hungry" more often
-She Gets very "ill"
~Option 1- Ignore the news and lose affection points
~Option 2- Go find the doctor
-Pregnant-

Ok. Thank you very much for that. I'll start gifting her spa boiled eggs again until she pops. I'm kinda excited. This is my first HM marriage and pregnancy.

You're welcome!~

BTN is one of the root games for the series. That being saidi, ts a simple farm life. Everything should be pretty straight forward and not too overly complicated.

I'm glad you're enjoying the game! Be sure to keep us posted and see if you can prove or bust the 30 day gifting controversy. :) Who did you end up marrying? Are you ready for family life?!? Haha

We got married on the 6 of Summer I think it was but I didn't find out about the gift giving thing until the last week of the season. So I'm either going to find out on the 6, give or take, or the end of fall. I can't wait. I've started giving her honey. It just seemed easier and it seems to get the same reaction.
And I agree with it being one of the most basic ones of the series. But to me, it makes it more enjoyable for me. I've had it since late September and I absolutely love. There is not stress with it unlike recent additions to the series. It's just basic farming.

Ok. I've collated the data and am ready to present my findings to you fine people. The facts are that Popuri and I married on the 6th of Summer. It was an absolutely beautiful summer's day, the villagers attended and birds were chirping. I talked to her everyday afterwards. I'm quite smitten with my new bride, you see. Then around the 23 day of Summer, I stumble across a scientific study that stated I couldn't get her pregnant unless I gave her gifts so I started gifting her honey everyday, upset at myself for not realising sooner. I really wanted to have a child with her. So the pregnancy announcement, I figured, would happen about 30 days after I started giving her gifts so about the 23rd of Autumn. I got to the 6th, then decided to skip ahead a few days, just talking and no gifting. On the morning of the 8th of Autumn, she said she wasn't feeling very well. As the dutiful husband I am, I rushed off to the doctors office but she had already beaten me to it. It was confirmed, she was pregnant. About 32 days after our wedding.
TL:DR I would like to say the gift giving myth is a bust. As long as you talk to your wife every day, she should be pregnant within a month, give or take. But that's just my opinion.

Congrats!! Yeah I feel like there are a load of myths with the older HM games. Thank you for putting this one to rest, heh.

I guess it came about because you probably just need to keep your wife at high affection for ~1 month, and giving her a gift every day would ensure that. I hope Popuri's pregnancy goes smoothly!~

Well, yeah, talking raises love points, and if you already maxed them... then they simply prevent them from going down (as in, you're not ignoring your wife).

Giving gifts is more or less the same as talking (by the time you maxed the points).

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!
I have been plagued with that crushing doubt for about a month or two.
Yours was the only conclusive answer I found throughout the whole world wide web.
So no gifts are required, just talk to her everyday.
And I've looked as far as I could, in places I have never imagined returning to (like the 3rd page on a Google search!!)
Best Regards,
A very thankful player.
