Hmmmm... unless you already have a baby and know how to manage him or her well. i think it can be an added stress having to take care of two “babies”. but would be nice if you can handle them :)

I waited until my son is older...I am obsessed with the germs that pets carry and dont want any unnecessary transfer when my boy is still too young with less developed immune system

I mean you can’t really choose but if you’re having a baby and then getting a puppy/kitten etc I think it’ll be hectic

I really want cat but looking to get pregnant so don’t think it’s a good idea

I would want my child to grow up with pets as it teaches them empathy

Yes! Can’t wait for my chihuahuas to meet their little sibling!

Depends, some young children are allergic to animals fur

I like dogs. But I’ll probably think twice as well.

Yes why not , i have my cat of 13yrs :)

Would love my kid to grow up with a pet
