:I agree with the advice to get training help, etc. I think it could be helpful to also point out here that with a baby on the way, your feelings about the dog may be affected by other priorities. Just something to think about. Women sometimes feel radically different about dogs at such times, and even more so after the baby comes.

Yes, thinking back, I was a little annoyed with my cat when I was pregnant with my first. Not to this extent, but some. Mainly with the cat because when I don't sleep well she tends to try and come up on the bed and get attention. At least the dog is keeping that from happening, he has appointed himself guard of the bed.
I just hope I feel a little better about him once I'm no longer pregnant and hormonal. :)
