Could your furry friend be aware of your pregnancy before you even take a test? It seems so! Many expectant mothers have reported that their pets, especially dogs, demonstrate signs of knowing something is up. For instance, one mom shared, “I’m four weeks pregnant, and my dog, who usually keeps her distance, has suddenly become super clingy. It’s almost like she knows!”
According to a recent poll, a whopping 85% of mothers with pets believe their animals sensed their pregnancy. But how is this possible? Research suggests that dogs might be able to detect hormonal changes in their owners, which could explain their altered behavior.
Some moms note that their pets have become extra affectionate or protective during their pregnancies.
