Select the Sims you want to have a child and make them lay in bed. Select the "Try for Baby" option. The Sims do not have to be married, but they must be in a romantic relationship for this option to appear. Sims will not want to try for a baby if they are in a bad mood. If the attempt was successful you will hear a lullaby sound play, which will indicate that the mother is now pregnant.

Eat apples in between the time that the Sim mother became pregnant and when her pregnancy starts to show. When a pregnant Sim eats apples, it increases her chance of having a male baby. Apples can be purchased at the grocery store or picked off trees in your home or community garden. The mother should eat at least 10 before her pregnancy starts to show.

Tips & Warnings
If one of your Sims is in the World Renowned Surgeon career, he will be able to interact with the pregnant mother and determine the sex of her baby.
Performing these steps will not guarantee twin boys, but will only increase your chances. If you do not obtain the desired results, try again or reset to an earlier save from before your Sim became pregnant.
Once the mother begins to show signs of her pregnancy, it is too late to influence the sex; however, you will still be able to improve your chances of getting twins.
Taking care of twin babies is more difficult than just one, so if you have no experience raising Sim babies you may wish to start a new game with twin boys who are already grown into children instead.
