I'm getting really angry, My mums got 5cats and one of them not long had kittens, And I'm getting bitten by fleas😞 Can this harm the baby in anyway?
@tiasohi1Haven't heard of foot and mouth in children. Sounds scary😦Definitely need to look that up. But @gemma98 You should definitely have your mum get rid of the fleas now. Fleas are horrible little things. I myself have a completely indoor cat but I still apply flea spot on monthly and worm him quarterly. Better to be safe than sorry. And touch wood, I have not had fleas since he was a kitten..
You just need to be careful when the baby gets here aswell ... Fleas and children don't mix - also the outbreak of foot and mouth in small infants at the moment is at an all time high ... Which can be carried in from the gardens by cats etc X
@gemma98 I don't think fleas can affect the baby hun but just incase I'd mention it to you doctor. Meanwhile have your mum apply flea spot on on the cats and then flea sprayand vacuum the house everyday until they die out, which should be soon after that.
Also there's nothing wrong with having a cat while pregnant. The problem is with your skin coming in contact with cat poo that may be infected with toxoplasmosis. Toxoplasmosis becomes active in poo around 12-24 hours after the cat poops. Just avoid the litter box or use gloves when cleaning it and wash hands straight away with antibacterial hand-wash. I suggest cleaning out litter box 2-3 times a day so the toxoplasmosis doesn't have a chance to become active.
BTW, not all cats have toxoplasmosis and indoor cats are very low risk.
should be fine unless they get infected if your not sure ask your midwife xx
I don't know about beating by fleas, but I know contact with cats can harm your baby. You need to say your doctor than you have cats at home ant then he will make a test for toxoplasmosis. And for sure you must not touch, clean and smell cat's toilet, it's really bed for pregnancy. Google it and you will read lot of info about it
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
❤️Getting to know you❤️
Since our May group is growing strong and we have a lot of new mommies joining and sharing their bfp's...Thought it will be fun to get to know each other as we all share our pregnancy journey!

My sweet baby girl gained her angel wings this morning. She was my best friend, my true love my everything. She was so happy and beautiful, I'm struggling to say good bye. Sleep tight princess, mummy and daddy love you very very much ❤️
need suggestions....
So at work we have a drink thief. Any time we put a drink in the fridge it disappears. I swear I know who it is. So far he's taken drinks from everyone that works in the office, we even put a sign to not take anything you didn't pay for and wrote our names on the drinks. The person I think is taking them works out of the office so we never get to see who is drinking them.
