My dog jumped on me- is the baby okay?

My dog jumped on me and I am worried she hit the soft spot on my baby's head. Do you think it's okay? Does it matter that she is a pit bull? I am concerned about this.

Oh noes. Should I pee on her to show her who is boss?
I don't know, did she pee on you too? That might be a sign of dominance.
If she did pee on you, have your SO pee on her to establish pack order. I would say that you should do it, but it's difficult to aim in this stage of the game.
Are you serious with this question? Am I missing something here?!?!
ETA: Ok, what did I miss??? I hate stupid animal owners, and unfortunately there are more stupid ones than smart ones!

Bwahaha. Yes...you should. I may have to do that to Apollo Puppy, too.
Definitely. DH needs to as well for good measure.
Love.
OMG you have a pit bull in the house? Aren't you afraid she's going to lock that jaw on your big old belly while you are sleeping? You know, most pit bulls have water on their brains and they just snap and turn on their owners. It doesn't matter how much love and training you have invested, you need to get rid of her right now. If you don't no one will want to come to the house to see the new baby and you can forget about play dates at your house.
Just sayin'

These are all such helpful suggestions. Thank you so much.
I already plan on crating the baby. It has worked so well for our dog and it will be so much easier than finding a qualified babysitter.
Hopefully she won't lock her jaws on my belly. If she does, I can lock mine onto her so she knows who is boss.
Ditto 1000%. If that doesn't work, then should should just tie her up to a tree and leave her outside all day. It could also be the food you're feeding her too. Perhaps you should look into changing to Purina or Science Diet.
FTW!
We were thinking the same thing! It saved us from having our (ok well some) walls chewed up.
Sorry - you need to get educated more. Old Roy is the way to go . . . .
If you accomplish this I will pay you to come train mine

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!

But I'm sure that OP's baby will be fine. She can just put the baby outside with food and water and the baby will be so happy to be outside that the OP won't even notice.
Babies like the outdoors - haven't you seen them asking to go outside? Sitting at the back door, just waiting to be let out? And then once they are out, they HATE to come back in. Best just to leave it outside.
Seriously! How do I go about getting one of these?
When your DH gets home, you should have him beat the dog so that she knows she did something wrong. And then jump on her tummy to show her how it feels.
(EDIT: Okay seriously, someone once posted something like that on these boards once. The dog jumped on her tummy and when he got home, he beat the dog... Like that makes any sense at all!)
Your dog was trying to win dominance over the baby while still in the womb so the baby can't fight back.
According to Cesar Milan you need to lay on your dog with your belly helping to hold the dog down so your baby can show the dog who is the alpha.
If that doesn't work just sell your dog on CL. There are millions of loving homes that want your dominant dog there!!!
That is a good point. There is a huge shortage of pit bulls out there, isn't there?
Yup its a rare bread. And make sure to charge $200-300 so you can get some compensation for your trouble.
Or if you need to get rid of it NOW you could just go sit in a Walmart parking lot and try to give your dog away to a shopper. They'll love and care for your dog for ALWAYS.
Remember, if your DH doesn't agree with your methods, you can always rehome him
Great idea!
Nope, Old Roy made both our dogs and DH very gassy, they had to switch to Beneful.

Chaining is better than letting her run free, right?
That post makes me sick.
But food wise, we're on the Gravy Traaiiiiiiiin
