I have two kitties- Luna and Kyo. Usually Kyo sleeps at the foot of our bed or is cuddled up in my hair and Luna sleeps in her heated cat bed. I'm 13 DPO, so really too early to test, but for the past few nights, Luna has taken to sleeping under the covers curled up next to me, and Kyo won't sleep on the bed at all-she has taken to the floor. We shall see in a few days if they are sensing something!

I am due in two weeks. The dog for the last three days has not wanted to get out of his cage at at all. He usually sleeps in at night but now he goes in it all the time even when he doesnt have to. The only time he will get out is if I ask him if he wants a TREAT or if I throw a toy at him...he will play for a bit and then go back in his cage...I wonder if he senses that he will have a new brother or sister soon.

My dog gemma is definately my hubbies dog. She always sits by him at night when we're watching the tele. I found out last week i am expecting a baby (i'm now 5 wks) and our adorable choc lab just wants to sit and cwtch me the last 3 nights (not like here at all). Me and the hubby joked that she could tell i was pregnant but it looks like it happens alot. Good luck everyone xxx

I just entered my fouth month and both my cat (11yrs,) and my dog (5yrs.) are acting strange with me and each other. Normally my cat hates to be around people. Lately she is constantly at my feet rubbing against my leg. My dog has to be right at my side too. If I sit down she comes runing ad lays beside me and starts licking me, ALOT !!! Now my cat and dog hate each other but seem to tolerate each other lately just so they can both be with me at all times. I just love it...

I'm 38 weeks pregnant. I live with a lot of people and animals, but the strangest thing has been happening. My boyfriend's cat, who detests just about everyone, hates to be touched, bites anyone who tries to pet her, and is basically a grouchy old woman has been following me the past few days, as if guarding me. She has been cuddling with me, letting me pet her, standing outside doors and waiting for me. Guarding the hallway as to make sure the dogs leave me alone. It's actually nice.

I'm 8 weeks pregnant and the owner of a gorgeous English Springer Spaniel. For the last week or so he has been sniffing my tummy and wanting even more cuddles than usual. He is also very careful around my tummy. He used to jump up onto it, but now he goes to the side or even puts his legs either side and puts no weight on my stomach. He is very careful when getting off my knee, dropping off carefully or jumping over it! He keeps looking at me as well, as if to say "I know!". How strange! It's quite nice though!
