Where is his wife? They need to be together. They can wait together in a fief, or they can just ride around together in your party if you don't have a fief. There's some random number ♥♥♥♥ going on as the program checks every day to see whether the lady gets pregnant.

basically, you do the same thing with them you do with your own wife.

She's just hanging out in Sargot... So as long as I wait around there with my brother in my party there is a chance they will get pregnant?

Brother and wife have to be in SAME fief.. Resting. I've never seen them have babies NOT in a fief. So you can Pick up your brothers wife (go to that town/castle where she is at), then check the castle (talk to someone), or the Tavern... she should be there. Bring her to your party. If you picked one of the 10-12 good ones.. she is INSANELY good. SUPER SUPER SUPER good.

Put her in party, have brother in party.. now go rest in a town or castle somewhere.. (takes a short time),... but eventually she gets pregnant.

You can ALSO leave her in a fief.. and you guys just REST there, and since both are in same spot, she will get pregnant. (this is useful for if you have her as a governor). But never leave her in someone elses town... shes way too valuable to be wasting her skills there.

brother`s wife gets pregnant when they are together in player`s party/army. no neccessary to rest in fief. same with player and he`s wife.
just leave your brother in the keep of the same fief his wife is located in

I have never seen a spouse get pregnant from walking.. ever. In fact, I have read at least 30 threads of people having wife in SAME party as husband, and playing for 10+ years of game time. and NOT getting pregnant. So yes, the wife doesn't have to be a governor, or stashed in that fief. She can BE IN PARTY (as most people keep their wives with them).. but they DO IN FACT need to "rest" in a fief (town or castle) for her to get pregnant. I've never seen, nor heard of it working otherwise. and there were NUMEROUS posts people NOT resting, never getting pregnant.. they post here.. or official forums. are told to REST with wife in a fiefe.. then miraculously they get pregnant.

Again, if it is possible to get pregnant in party (I give it a .00000000001% chance of being correct) then I've never seen it. or heard of it, from anyone in forums I trust.

I.e. you can not.

Rest in a fief with your spouse.. she will get pregnant.

The wife of my brother and also the wife of my main hero got a pregnancy during a siege in the time siege camp was built.
I think, but not sure, once it was also while the quest collect the taxes in a sattlement too.

I've never rested in a village... so I guess so, if u say so.
And IF you can get pregnant while Sieging a fief.. that means the game recognizes it as BEING IN THE FIEF, even though you "are on the outskirts".

Anyway,, this is all getting too advanced. Morale of story.... For 99.99999999% of people in 99.9999999% of instances, in 99.999999% of campaigns. You need to "rest" in a "fief" with your spouse. She may or may not be in your party, she may or may not be a governor (or idling noble hanging out).. but she and the husband have to be RESTING in same fief.

Walking around (for 10+ years) will never get them pregnant. BUT... eventually when u go to a town to rest after a battle.. even if it's 1 night... she will get pregnant. (assuming you have been walking years.. ).

Well, sorry but it does happen without needing to rest.
It happenend on my merchand run, where I just run around the continent, only stopping at each town to buy and sell. Happened while running around. I never rest anywhere. I just added my wife in the party and she got pregnant while I was running somewhere between two towns a couple of days after I picked her up.

However this character is absurdely lucky. I decided to join her faction at the same time I married her, then a couple days later her father, who is also the faction leader, died in battle.
And somehow the other nobles decided I would make a fine leader. So in a span of less than a month, I've gone from single, independent merchant to Sultan of the Aserai, married with a child on the way.
Irrelevant to the subject, I know, but It was quite hilarious.

Yeah??? just casually walking around.. and bam "your spouse is pregnant" appeared on screen????

I give this zero percent chance of happening. Can you be a merchant, trader, explorer, walking sim emulator..... and have spouse with you.. then when you HAPPEN to hit a town or castle (or apparently village.. but I've never seen it) and REST yes.. the "your spouse is pregnant" message can appear. The check sum for the code, is based on BEING in a fief. How can We figure this out??? without breaking out the code.. Simple

I've had many many many campaigns, where its me and spouse, bro and spouse, bro and spouse, and couple kids and their spouses.. So like 5-6 MARRIED couples.. all in party.. all walking around, fighting, trading, exploring, fighting some more.. etc.. 95% of my time is NOT in a fief. yet none of them ever get pregnant.. ever. Until the MINUTE you "wait here for awhile". then miraculously 1-3 of the couples all get pregnant within a day or two.

As opposed to the 3 solid years we were all in party, all walking around.. and NEVER "waited". And they never got pregnant.

if you "remember" it happening that way. Cool.

but there are mulitple threads from many people saying no kids in 10+ years. and MULTIPLE long time players all reply same as I did... "need to WAIT in a fief" then miraculously... they get pregnant.

Also... since I just read earlier today "I got pregnant while sieging a fief once" I did a siege (multiple.) And noticed, that the "gain 10xp per troop. while resting in a fief" think was working. I went in started siege.. Then by time siege was ready to attack (2-3 days) noticed. that 9 of my dudes increased a level. From that perk.

So yep, apparently game recognizes SIEGING as "being in a fief" for some reason.

I'm not sure if I ever saw my members get pregnant, but it would sure seem to be possible, based on that "+10 xp" perk.
theslay66 Mar 7, 2022 @ 4:37pm 
Well yes, it happened just like that, I was walking around, and bam got the message.
And I "remember" it clearly because it was less than a week ago, and that was the first time happening to me since I picked up the game again, and had forgotten this feature of the wife getting pregnant ever existed.

Now you don't have to believe me, really. Think what you want.
I just want to point out that, if the probability of such event happening is very low, then having multiple threads claiming it didn't happen is no proof that it can't happen -only that it may be quite rare.
In fact I have this other game where I have been running around with my wife for quite a while and was wondering why she was still not pregnant. Now I know why.

I will believe you "remember" it that way. but in 2000 hours I've never seen it. Nor has one of my buddies with 700 hours.

But... you throw in a "caveat" you said " happened less than a week ago". That would be the 1.7.1 patch??????

I just started the 1.7.1 recently.. On my second partial campaign. STILL never seen it happen (nor do I expect it too... Since I literally have had 5 couples in party. walked for years.. no rest no pregnant. the SECOND I rest, 3 of them get pregnant. that's pretty convincing... BUT were all pre 1.7.1)

So my theory is you are remembering it wrong, or if it was 1.7.1 I don't have enough hours in it to confirm. But I'm willing to bet it STILL needs you to "wait".

Again, only 20 hours or so in 1.7.1 So not sure if something changed.. but 500+ in 1.7.0 and it DEFINITELY worked like it always has. (need to WAIT).

One last thing.. Your guy isn't particularly "Lucky". you are just smart.

If you are the Richest person in your faction.. when the Leader dies.. u always win the vote :)

So your trading empire.. worked out well. you made some cash.. Unqid kicked the bucket.. and you are now the new SULTAN. Huzzah :)

Another good reason, to always focus on Economy before troops IMO.

Rest in a fief with your spouse.. she will get pregnant.

It can happen while walking, while resting on the game map, resting in a village, resting in a castle, or resting in a town.
The above list goes from least likely to most likely.
I have had both my character's wife and my brother's wife both get pregnant at the same time waiting for nightfall to attack a bandit hideout.

MUST wait in a fief..

All these new people.. with "hidden hours" played in bannerlord spreading misinformation lol.

MUST be in a fief..

me.. 2100 hours.. Never seen it "walking".

Buddy 780 hours. never seen it.

Got a message out to another buddy 2k hours. I'm sure he never seen it either.

Read some OLD forum posts on this forum... "hey can't get wife pregnant, been years". people say "wait in town". they do.. And BOOM pregnant.

Went to REDDIT. Same advice.. same results
Went to OFFICIAL forums. Same advice. same results.

Keep clogging it up all u want lmao.

Summary: MUST "Wait". Not "walk into a town'. MUST WAIT. <walking into a town to shop counts as a nanosecond.. even if you are there for REAL world hours.... the game doesnt pass GAME time. so it is NOT WAITING, in the games view>

Could it be wait in town? yep sure is, Castle? yep sure is. Village??? I guess so.. since u click "wait". but I never saw it.. AND I have done the wait for Deserter quest.. but not enough times to say with certainty.. it can't happen. So I'll say PROBABLY can happen waiting in villages.
Siege camp? I guess so, since the "+ 10 xp per day WAITING in a town" perk works. So apparently game counts siege camp as WAITING in a town. Will it work waiting for a Hideout? Maybe.. Since you are WAITING but never seen it. Again, havent waited at hundreds of siege camps to have a large enough sample size for me to speak with certainty but I guess it SEEMS possible.

Common theme???? You are waiting in all of them.. except Siege camp (which I assume is a bug.. something they coded recently to take advantage of some perks that require u to WAIT.. but that's just a guess).

Say "nah, walking works". all u want.. Post how many hours you have in game. (not type it.. show it in your profile). And even better, link to a Youtube. ANY YOUTUBE.. where u see it. There are thousands of hours of youtubes regarding bannerlord play. Certainly SOMEONE has had it happen on video right? right?

Again, I can confirm 3k hours (me and buddy combined) never saw it.. And will probably get confirmation from ANOTHER person over 2k hours.. who has not seen it either. But I wont speak for him yet.


WAIT. WAITING is key :)

~cheers
