In 1775, she was elevated to "Third Consort". On 8 December 1776, she gave birth to her first child, a son, Şehzade Ahmed, who died at the age of about two on 18 November 1778. In 1778, she was elevated to "Second Consort". On 17 July 1778, she gave birth to her second child, a daughter, Esma Sultan.

She also ordered the prisoners, who were imprisoned due to their debts, to be released and their debts to be paid. In 1780, she commissioned a fountain in Üsküdar near the Cedid Valide Mosque in the memory of her son, Ahmed. Two years later, on 12 December 1782, she gave birth to her third child, a daughter, Fatma Sultan, who died of smallpox at the age of three on 11 January 1786. Sineperver was widowed at Abdul Hamid's death in 1789, after which she settled in the Old Palace.
