The positive pregnancy test is in most cases a joyful news that will flood the whole family with happiness. Looking into the baby, however, also brings some pitfalls and concerns. One of them is a problem in contact with pets. How is it really and what should future mothers never neglect?
Many are afraid that after the pregnancy detects it will be necessary to get rid of pets as soon as possible. On the one hand, there is a concern for the health of the child, on the other hand, there is a bond to our four -legged companions usually also very strong. Therefore, the good news is that there is no reason for such a step if mothers hold several basic simple rules.
There are many influences from my mother’s surroundings before birth:
Beware of toxoplasmosis
For expectant mothers with whom a cat also lives in one household, it is necessary to take into account. It is a parasitic disease whose carrier is just cats. However, it should be stated that the infection of the animal occurs mainly when consuming raw meat or hunting. Thus, home micina fed with granules should not be such a risk.
However, let’s remember that toxoplasmosis is transmitted by feces, and therefore a pregnant woman must avoid handling the cat’s toilet. That’s why the other family members are. (But with toxoplasmosis, one can infect even from poorly washed vegetables or insufficiently cooked meat…).

Dogs are even safer
When it comes to dogs, in their case it is even easier. According to experts for a pregnant woman, they do not pose a health risk, rather the possibility that these receptive animals will sense the planned arrival of an “intruder” into the family and could begin to jealous to some extent.
Therefore, it is necessary to prepare dogs for the arrival of the babies by consistent upbringing, care and attention, to acquaint them with new sounds, let them sniff things prepared for baby, its cosmetics and so on. It is advisable to let the dog records children’s crying to get used to this news.
Relaxation with animals
Both dogs and cats, can even be useful family members during pregnancy. Cats are known to release frequencies that are able to heal, and. Even unborn children perceive this, so when the cat in front of her mother on her lap, it can also benefit a baby.
For a walk with a dog
What about dogs? They have a slightly different “function”. They can not do without walking, which the expectant mother can also use for ideal training. Movement is healthy even in this period of life of a woman, so there is no reason to omit walking even during pregnancy. You just need to be careful about the education of the dog to avoid injury to the mother. But this applies in any case.
Retrieve all doubts
In order to have the future mother and her whole family, that for the well -being and health of the offspring, everything that is possible will be done, it will be advisable to go to the vet, ask everything that can be interested in such a situation, and ask for the appropriate vaccination of the animal. As soon as these conditions have been met, coexistence with the animal is without a problem from conception. My mother can look forward to a baby and enjoy the presence of her four -legged pet.
