ANIMALS

i wanted opinions about my dog. I don't know I animals can tell UR pregnant but my dog just follows me all ova my house. I'm mean more than usual since I've been pregnant. I'm 15w 3d i mean its to the point where I almost trip on her. If I kick her out my room n close the door she will just lay right outside my door TIL I open it. If she's in my room she lays right nxt to my bed to where I gotta step ova her to get up. Sometimes I don't even know she's there.  She been doing this since I've been pregnant. What's YALL thoughts on this?

I think they can. My babies follow me everywhere. All 3 try to lay in my lap too. My boy dog follows me to the restroom. They are just being protective.

I believe they can, with my first pregnancy my sons father's dog which he cared for most of the time followed me everywhere always at my feet and this was before I even found out I was prego. Then when I found out someone told me that's why the dog was following me. When my son was born the dog was wherever the baby was very protective

I certainly think they can. Our dog started sleeping at the foot of our bed and I trip over him constantly if I need to get up in the night and has been licking my belly since before I was showing. I find it reassuring that he knows something is changing, I'm hopeful that it means he'll be more accepting when bubs arrives this week.
