I just recently went through the same situation. We got our Corgi when i was already pregnant, then when I was put on bedrest towards the end of the nine months, he was my cuddle buddy in bed. So he got really spoiled really fast, and he still is. But amazingly, even though he had never even seen a baby before it was like he somehow knew when we brought her home that she was our new baby, and he was her big brother.

I just recently went through the same situation. We got our Corgi when i was already pregnant, then when I was put on bedrest towards the end of the nine months, he was my cuddle buddy in bed. So he got really spoiled really fast, and he still is. But amazingly, even though he had never even seen a baby before it was like he somehow knew when we brought her home that she was our new baby, and he was her big brother. He was always so careful with her and attentive. I made sure he still got the attention he needed and was used to, but he really did seem to sense to baby was new and helpless and needed more than him. I dont know if thats a breed-wide trait, or if he was jut extraordinariloy good. We raised him from weeks, so i also think how he he was raised at the critical personality developing times will definitely matter too. I always let him check out all the new baby stuff and never kept him out of the babys room while we were preparing. The day we came home with the baby I greeted our dog like I always did, then set down the car seat so he could smell it with her in it. I think it really helps not to over react if he was smelling her in her bouncer, or checking her out in my lap. Just let him do it, the baby isnt going to catch anything from him, as long as you know he wont snap, i think it is very important to let your dog know he's still loved and that this new little person isnt off limits and going to make his life hell. Our daughter is 8 and a half months old now and he's still amazing with her. He cuddles her when she's sleepy as you can see. If you have any questions feel free to email me! Congratulations and good luck!<p style="text-align: left;"><img src="http://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/3126155070?profile=original" alt=""/></p> We don't have a baby ourselve…tag:mycorgi.com,2010-02-20:1150197:Comment:6190632010-02-20T19:04:40.383ZAvyonhttp://mycorgi.com/profile/Avyon
We don't have a baby ourselves but CONGRATZ! :) Its going to be such a wonderful time for you!<br />

Roxi grew up with kids around her so I never worried about her. She went to the afterschool program with dad and herded the little kids all afternoon till they were picked up lol. In turn the kids learned how to be nice to animals.<br />

Charlie had his real test when we went to a bbq and my boss brought her granddaughter who was still a baby at the time. It was getting late so they laid the baby on the floor and the dogs still played and sniffed a little but after realizing it was a "pup" they left the baby completely alone. Actually keeping a distance around it.<br />
<br />
Its been amazing but whenever we've been around kids or babies they both have been very gentle and nice. Its like they know its a human pup. Lola has been pretty good wit…tag:mycorgi.com,2010-02-20:1150197:Comment:6187562010-02-20T00:27:54.272ZLaura & Lolahttp://mycorgi.com/profile/LauraLola
Lola has been pretty good with our baby, Owen. He's now 7 1/2 months old & mobile, so she gets irritated with him crawling after her all day! He just LOVES her though!! I'm hoping once he can pet her 'nicely' she will warm up to him. She's always been a little skittish though. She has been following him around a bit more now that he can eat snacks ;) Such a Corgi!!!<br />

Sounds like Molly's already got some experience w/ kids, which is great :) Bryson has never interacted with kids (except for the random ones we ran into on the street), and he did fine, so I'm sure with some preparation, Molly will be great with your new baby. Forgot to mention we took good, long walks (the 4 of us) almost every day as soon as I was physically able to after birth. I think that helped reinforce us as a pack. Hope you have a smooth rest of your pregnancy! Keep us posted!

Oh wow.. thanks everyone for your responds and suggestions. Also for the beautiful photos ^^ I love them all. I will follow your suggestions and see how my Molly reacts :) she's been around my nephew who's only 2 but not very often.. and it was visible that she was a bit guarded (not aggressive) because she's not used to see someone so small. Luckily so far Molly looks like that she has a very gentle nature (not snappy when bothered - even when she eats or sleeps). I still got a lot of time to…
