For my pet lovers

Has anyone pet started acting up since finding out you were pregnant? I have a rottie and she has been getting into everything. Like today there were shrimp I made left on the table and I asked my daughter did she eat them up she said no because she knew they were for her father when he returned from work. The plate was tilted like someone grabbed and ran. I figured it out my dog did it. She was hiding! Mind you she never jumps up and grabs anything not even when I say she could have something she waits for permission

Our little chihuahua terrier has been really good practice for our patience for this baby. He'll cry and whine and beg for attention like he's never been taken care of ever in his entire life. It's getting exhausting.

My cats have been very clingy and protective since I got pregnant. Our youngest cat, the boy, is very protective and refuses to leave my side (even with the bathroom! Lol). He's not normally like that. Our older cat, the girl, is super clingy. She's normally clingy, but not this much! They're both adorable. They're excited too!

I have three cats and they all have been very close and cuddly with me lately. My little munchkin cat has been following me around like a little puppy dog and always sleeps next to me which he only did every so often. Now, every morning he's right at my side lol it kinda cute.  I didn't think much of it till' I read this post. Our dogs haven't done anything yet that I've noticed at least.

Pets no. My dog laid beside me a winged for 3 hours before i went into labour ( i was not contracting at all ) she would not leave my side and howled like she was dying when i left to go to hospital ( she never howls ). Then when i had bub my mum bought her to the hospital to meat bub ( on numeral turf ) and she was licking his feet and laying her head at his feet and keeping herself between strangers and my son. She was amazing with him rest her soul. I hope my new dog is as good with this baby as she was

My dog refuses to leave my side. I came home from work and both dogs acted like they hadn't seen me in a week! Our male dog has always had a thing for me and always been a bit "needy" (hubby's term) but lately i can't be out of his sight or he whines or panicks.

It's frustrating because I know she's a good dog. I've never had a problem out of her before now
