Pets and Baby’s
Do you have a cat or dog in the house? Be careful, as they can feel jealous with the arrival of a baby and displaced of the main affection of their owners.
If you have a dog, allow him to smell a blanket with the baby’s odor in it and allow the dog to smell it before the baby comes into the house, not when the baby is inside the house.
Cats look for body heat and it is probable they will want to cuddle up next to the baby. Be careful though. Remember that cats can pass on infections and diseases, such as toxoplasmosis, both during pregnancy as well as after birth. The hair of cats and dogs can also cause allergies and asthma.
