I think my dog knows I'm pregnant

Kwoodiwi

Does anyone with pets notice them acting differently towards you? I have two dogs, a male Beagle named Snoopy and a male Poodle named Butters, both 3 years old. The Beagle was clearly a Daddy's boy and the Poodle is my baby. Anyway, the Beagle has suddenly become my best friend and waits for me everywhere around the house and wants to sleep next to my belly every night. It is almost like he knows that I am pregnant. I am not complaining but it is just kind of funny. Does anyone else have any funny pet and pregnancy/baby stories? Or does anyone think pets can "know" these kinds of things?

 

FYI: This whole ticker thing confuses me, I've tried and tried to get it to work with no avail so I'm 7 weeks today for anyone who wants to know.

I have two dogs as well and before I even found out I was pregnant, they wouldn't leave my side. I'm 9 weeks now and they still won't leave me. My one dog even always lays with her head on my belly. Dogs can def sense when you are pregnant.

That's exactly what's happening to me!  We have a mutt (mostly Beagle) that lives and dies by my husband, but since week 7 he won't leave me alone.  He will even go as far as to cram himself between my husband and I while were sitting on the

My cat wants to lay in my lap all the time now... But it might have to do with the fact that he just had all his fur shaved off! I'm hoping he just loves me a little more!

When we first found out my dogs wouldn't leave my side. This has happened both pregnancies.

If my husband's cat could crawl up my a$$, he would. Before he tolerated me, would give me a chin lift if I walked by, but now? He must touch me at all times. He sleeps with his paws on my stomach.

Mine, too!   We have a bichon poo who is usually such a daddy's girl but since about a week ago she has always wanted to snuggle on my lap at night.  I told my husband that I think she knows I'm pregnant and he laughed at me, but I can s

I'm totally convinced animals can sense these kinds of things, I mean they have dogs that can detect cancer so I'm sure animals can detect hormonal changes during a pregnancy.  

My little dog has been much more "cuddly" with me the past few

My JRT has always been my best friend, but he is really all about me right now. My rabbit is also very sweet toward me. Normally, she nibbles at me when I reach in to pet her, but now she lowers her head and patiently waits for me to pet her.

My beagle is my everything! Before pregnancy he was my cuddle bug, now he's a jerk and rarely wants anything to do with me. We still have the same routine but he's not as lovable towards me.
DHs cat is another story. She only liked me because I fed

Three of the four animals in my house are definitely acting different, most noticeably is my husbands German Shepherd and my cat.  My cat is always on me, she comes to bed with me and lays on me, she lays on me when I'm in my computer chair, and she

We have two boxers - the male is acting exactly the same as always but the female absolutely knows. Since about 3 or 4 weeks she gets very very close to me and will look me in the face, bump her chin on my lips, lean in and sniiiiiiiiff me very slowly. It

Yes! My dogs have always been attached at my hip, but my Pitt bull now waits outside of the bathroom and my room and walks with me as though there is a 3 inch invisible leash attaching us. She also has become extremely protective of me. My cats are both f
