How do you keep them from not having babies?

I can't prove it now, as I didn't document it, but I am certain that in the beginning there were not that many kids. The population remains at 8, yet I swear there are 2 or 3 more tiny bodies zooming around the grounds that weren't doing so yesterday. Not older kids, the tiny sized ones. And yesterday, only one woman was carrying A baby. Unless she had twins bundled in that one blanket.

Now I write down their names (but I can't alter them for a last name to keep a genetic trail) to be sure I have a handle on it.

try to feed them when there sick

Dance! If you have puzzle 6. Take a handful of villagers, including the chief first, (easier if paused w/spacebar)to the fire pit. This is also another puzzle if they succeed.It will always give food.

I don't know if this has been suggested but your chief can make magic food about every 24 hours.

I decided to make another village and play The Secret City while my internet was down yesterday. I just want to say that it is pretty crazy to have an island event come along that took all the food away after I chose wrongly about feeding the sea otters. Now there is just no way that my villagers will stay alive with almost 3 hrs to go until that first mango tree grows. I have never had a village die on me that I can remember and it really, really sucks that that is what will probably happen. I have played all Virtual Villagers games so if LDW makes another one, then please do not allow the wiping out of food at the start of a game. That is just not fair play. Anyway, I look forward to passing along the Virtual Villagers' games to my niece. Hopefully she will like them as well.

UPDATE: Forget playing with this new tribe. I am pretty sure they will all be goners. =( I found the tribe chief and he made some magic food but it is nowhere near enough. 196 food only and 2 hrs 29 mins to go to grow one mango tree, no honey left. Why make such a cruel island event at the very beginning of the game? I would rename them "The Dead Tribe" if I could.

Arthur's games have always presented good and bad events randomly, starting from the first 15 minutes of game play, but if you want a way to keep the tribe alive until the trees are grown:

Okay, thank you.

I can't access food guide, every time I click on it, it takes me to announcements, and my villagers are dying, please can anyone help

The link has been fixed, you should be able to access it now.

Thanks heaps Xay, greatly appreciated
