Animals Acting Strangely. Our Readers Write!

I just read at pregnancy-info.net, that your pets can act differently when you get pregnant, even you do not know you are pregnant yet. This made mi think, since my hubby and I are TTC. I am about 4 DPO, and have no clue if this time it worked. Just last night my cat (still kitty-7 months old) decided to sleep almost on my face, or at least pretty close to me, and even when I moved, she was pressing on me. Usually, when she wanted to sleep with us, and we yelled at her, she never came back (slept under the tub). This time there was no chance to get her out off bed (or actually off me). My husband even said I should be careful because animals can sense something, so he was worry something can happened to me today. Then I was searching the web for some early pregnancy signs, and got this article. Could my pet sense that I am pregnant, and act like this? I will find out in 10 day.....:)

When I was pregnant back in March, my husband and I noticed that our dog randomly started sleeping on the floor on my side of the bed before we even knew I was pregnant. I ended up miscarrying at 8 weeks and he slowly stopped sleeping next to me. Last night, 7 months later, he is sleeping next to me again... he is the earliest pregnancy test available!

my mom's dogs all wanted to be on my lap, one little one in particular would get angry at the other dogs trying to get near me and would bark and chase them off, then sit on my lap like a guard. lol also, my two pet rats keep climbing down my shirt to nuzzle near my belly. lol

I have the cutest lil cockapoo, and for about a week or so he will not let me get out of his sight, he is always trying to sleep right on top of my stomach. I can not even sit down without him climbing in my lap. I know dogs can sense things, I am wondering if he is trying to let me know something...

Well I am about 7 and a half weeks pregnant and my dog I dont know if she knows or not but shes been getting protective of me, has to be around me all the time, when I go to the bathroom or laying in bed. Shes been laying between my legs with her head on my tummy. I wonder if she knows! its so cute though to see her laying by or on my tummy!

I have several pets but this one cat, Abu, has been acting a bit differently. He has always been both sweet and nasty. He always would lie next to me in bed but he never used to get on top of me. Ever since I've been pregnant though, he keeps trying to sneak on top of me. Sometimes I let him but he's a heavy 15lb cat and it gets uncomfortable. When I try to get him to get off, he gets very insulted and angry.
