Actually, it is possible to keep a pet dog, but don’t get too close. I used to have one too, but my dad absolutely wouldn’t allow it, so I gave it away. My stinky little one, I was so sad to see it go; I was afraid someone would abuse it.
It’s best not to, as it’s easy to get bacterial infections.
During pregnancy, it’s best to have little to no contact with cats, dogs, or other household pets because these animals usually carry parasites that are extremely harmful to the fetus’s development. Therefore, pregnant moms should minimize contact with pets.
No, you shouldn’t. It’s definitely not good.
Actually, this issue has always been very controversial. Pregnant women overseas are very close with their pets, but in China, generally it is still not recommended for pregnant women to keep pets. For the health of the baby, it is suggested not to keep pets during pregnancy. I personally like pets a lot, but better safe than sorry. If the pet really causes harm to the baby, it would be deeply regrettable, right? And you wouldn’t escape responsibility from both parents! Just endure it, wait until the child is older, then keep pets~
It’s best to keep pets little or not at all... if you do, keep your distance.
Pets should not be kept during pregnancy because they carry too many parasites.
It’s best not to keep these, even the cleanest pets can easily breed bacteria.
It’s best not to keep pets. Keeping pet dogs can cause toxoplasmosis, which affects the fetus a bit. Also, if you form an attachment, after the baby is born, it will be hard to part with the pet, which definitely affects the baby.
However, while knowing pets are part of the family and there is affection, as a mother, the baby’s health is the top priority... you really need to think it over.
Mine is also a Pomeranian... When I got her registered, there was no toxoplasmosis... Will it affect later on? Thank you.
It’s best not to, because it easily causes toxoplasmosis infections leading to miscarriage.
If you really can’t bear to give it away, then pay attention to hygiene. Maybe restrict its activity area and try to avoid contact... I’m not trying to scare you, but infection is still possible later on. However, household dogs are usually cleaner, just don’t touch their feces and it should be okay. Also don’t hold them or let them sleep on your bed.
Actually, it’s best not to keep pet dogs. It’s better to keep the child’s growing environment clean and safe. During pregnancy, it’s best not to keep small animals!
It’s best not to keep pets because you can’t see toxoplasmosis or bacteria on pet dogs.
You can keep one, but pay attention to hygiene. Don’t use your hands to touch pet feces or the like. It’s best if you don’t touch the pet yourself; let family members disinfect more often... but if you’re worried, you could temporarily place the pet elsewhere for about a year.
My relative kept a Pomeranian. Now the baby is two years old and healthy. During pregnancy, she rarely touched the dog. Family members mainly took care of it. Also, you can have toxoplasmosis checked at the hospital while pregnant. As long as you maintain hygiene, it’s not a problem. But if you are worried, placing the pet elsewhere temporarily is recommended.
Not good! It will affect you and the baby, so for health and safety, it’s better not to. Wishing you health!
Dear, it is not recommended to keep pet dogs during pregnancy for the health of the fetus, because pet dogs carry parasites that are harmful to the fetus.
No! Pets have toxoplasmosis. That is a big taboo for pregnant women. If toxoplasmosis gets on the body, it can cause deformities!

Dear, pet dogs usually carry bacteria, and some even carry toxoplasmosis. Long-term contact during pregnancy is very harmful to the fetus, so it is recommended not to keep one.
There is no conflict between pregnant women and dogs as long as you don’t contact their feces or saliva. Dogs must be regularly vaccinated for rabies, and walks can be handled by other family members.
Better not to keep one. Otherwise, infection or other problems might arise and cause trouble.
