Hi all , I’m 33 weeks pregnant with first baby and we have a 5 year old cat ( indoor /outdoor ) She is very spoilt and well loved and sleeps in bed with us every night . We set babies next to me , cot and moses basket up early for her to get used to it and give us enough time to train her to not go in it. But this cat is determined , anytime our backs are turned she’s in there 😅 I really don’t want to keep her from sleeping in bed with us but also don’t want her sleeping with baby . Does anyone have any tips ?

Around 7 weeks pregnant atm with my second and usually I am obsessed with the smell of my dog. He is a little dachshund so other dachshund owners might understand but their little popcorn paws are delicious. However the past few days I cannot stand the smell of him. He has recently had a bath and not rolled in anything. He just smells like dog and I can't stand it. He is a velcro dog so wants to sit on or near me ALL the time but unfortunately I can't stand it atm.

Has anyone else had the same? I think i remember having it when I was pregnant with my 1st.

So Monday morning we lost our 9 year old cat very suddenly due to an aortic thromboembolism (a blood clot that was in his heart broke off into his body and caused his death).

I recused this cat when he was a few weeks old and had him through every major life event. He was even our 5 month old baby’s best friend, he LOVED to snuggle with us.

I’m really struggling with how to cope and the grief is truly taking over but I know I have to hold it together because mums don’t get a break when someone so tiny needs you at your best.

I guess I’m just looking for anyone who has been in a similar situation and wondering how you coped and how soon things started to feel even the tiniest bit easier?

To make it worse, my partner was on his way back from his friend’s stag-do and didn’t even get to say his goodbyes. We took our cat to the vet yesterday to be sent off for a cremation and he’s going to have a gorgeous little urn that looks just like him (I found the others looked a bit too morbid and wanted something that looked cute without obviously being an urn).

Any advice or support would be truly appreciated as this is my first loss of a pet and I truly can’t see myself ever being used to him not being here 💔

Looking for a bit of advice from fellow mums and pet owners 🐾🤍

We’re getting 4 cats, and once they’ve had plenty of time to settle in, we’re also hoping to get a puppy. I’m not pregnant yet, but we’re thinking about starting to try for another baby before Christmas, so I’m trying to think ahead and make sure we’re doing things in the best order.

Has anyone had a similar situation with multiple pets, a puppy and a toddler/baby? 🥹 How did you manage it all? Would you recommend waiting until the cats are fully settled before bringing a puppy into the mix, especially if we might be trying for another baby soon?

I’d love to hear your honest experiences and advice 🐱🐶🍼✨
