Pets and baby

Hi. I have a dog and cat. Baby's coming next year. Hope to get some tips from parents who also have pets in the family. 1. Is it OK for newborn baby and pets to stay together in the same house during the first month? If yes, will the baby fall sick easily? 2. How do you introduce your pets to the newborn?

actually studies show that the immunity system of babies who lives with pets are way better and stronger than those without. Of course the pets must be kept clean. My LO have been living under the same room as my fluffy Japanese Spitz since born, and she have been healthy! Both are happy and my baby definitely loves to get the attention of my dog. On top of that, its my way to educating my baby on loving, caring and be empathetic towards animals! So it aint a bad thing afterall. (PS: Depends on the temperament of your dog too! )
