[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here: yes, I have had dogs. I actually grew up with dogs, the first dog I had was little when I was born. The second one was still a puppy when my sister was born. My sister has two dogs, one came before kids and one came after the first and before the second. My dad is remarried and he has two dogs that were there before his kids were born. I know dogs are a lot of work. I know kids are a lot of work (I was a nanny for 8 years before having my own kids.) I am ok with that. I have a great husband who helps me with everything (from diapers to bedtime; from cleaning to making dinner) and we have a cleaning lady who comes once a week to do the deeper cleaning (fridge, windows, closets, etc.) So I am not going into this thinking it's all rainbows and unicorns. I just wanted some outside perspective on the timing. [/quote]

OP, it's clear that you're going to do whatever you want to do, so why are you bothering us?[/quote]

Yes, I was very clear on my first post that we were going to get a dog this year. [b]I was asking whether it should be a couple of months before or a couple of months after the baby was born[/b]. That's all. A lot of people are trying to convince me not to get a dog right now, which, if you read my first post back, I had already predicted and explained that was not the advice I was looking for. [/quote]

Well, the consensus seems to be that both are terrible ideas. Have you found this advice helpful?[/quote]
