I was quite curious when around my 14th week of pregnancy, my little tabby Maya started snuggling up to my barely-there bump and kneading my belly. Maya is a bit of a peculiar cat; she's fairly aloof most of the time so her newfound snuggliness was very different for her. My Nurse Practitioner was counseling me on toxoplasmosis safety at my next prenatal appointment when I happened to mention my cat's funny behavior. My Nurse told me that because cats can hear a range of frequencies much wider than humans, it was quite possible that Maya could hear the baby's heartbeat, an idea that made both my husband and I giggle.Kristihttp://trappedinthefrozennorth.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8568619474449091271.post-16773984851812618142009-08-19T19:14:42.887-05:002009-08-19T19:14:42.887-05:00With my first, I ended up with a nasty infection i...With my first, I ended up with a nasty infection in uterine lining. (40 weeks at that time) Before I, or anyone else knew there was an infection, my husband's border collie began climbing into bed with me at night and laying her head on my huge belly. She wouldn't get down or move her head from my stomach. Normally she listens when you tell her to quite but not this time. This went on for a few nights till I ended up in the hospital with a high fever. Immediately, I realized what she had been trying to tell me. My entire pregnancy, she had been watchful of me from the floor but never moved up to the bed. Animals are awesome. I now call her my guardian angel. I would believe her over a doctor. ;)<br />JamieJamiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02809818104596108203noreply@blogger.com
