My Furbabies

Bre

I love my dogs so much, but I’m pregnant now and the smell of them I cannot stand, I cannot play with them long enough with running to the toilet to vomit. I can’t get up and walk them like used to it, they have resulted to pooping and peeing in my very small apartment. I used to be so into my first Dino, we had a while before we got our new addition. I know he’s jealous because we have a new puppy but I can’t handle his cry for attention.

Honestly if I was not pregnant everything would have been handle differently but now I’m pregnant, the place smells horrible no matter what I do and no they do not pee on the carpet, they have their area and it’s still god forbidding awful I cannot handle the smell. I’m not exaggerating for me smells is something that really triggers my nausea and I have such a small apartment we are getting a two bedroom when the lease is up in October but I don’t want this smell when the baby comes. I know Dino was my baby and he had all the attention and now I’m focusing on the puppy to potty train but she’s pretty good. Dino peed on both of their dog beds, he’s never peed on his bed! He also pee and poops on his cage, I could leave him for hours and forget to let him out and he honestly would NEVER pee or poop and that was very rare.

Babe suggested we sell them and try again when the baby is a good age, I’m scared to sell because what if I have a miscarriage then I have them away for no reason but they need someone who can take care of them the way I used to. I wanting to ask my parents to keep them for a bit but they already have two dogs, but I need a month away until the second semester and hope the morning sickness is less and fatigue is less.

Babe has already picked up all my slack, he cooks, he cleans, he does laundry, he’s on the 90/10 right now and he does clean but the smell is still here, and you can taste it, and I don’t want the baby inhaling it because the cleaning products just mix in. I just need a quick break but not a permanent for them. Not sure if I should let them stay away for a bit or just give them to better homes.

I just need a helpful solution, I really do not want to sell but if it comes down to it I would obviousness have no other choice. I also got the dogs way before I knew I was pregnant, Pebbles is only a few months but I got her before knowing. I just cannot physically give them the love and attention I used to it’s emotionally hurting me.
