Can you get a dog during pregnancy?

Dogs are generally not recommended during pregnancy. It is possible for a pregnant woman to own a dog to have an effect on the fetus, and it is also recommended to minimize exposure to pets during pregnancy. The biggest effect of owning a pet during pregnancy is that it may lead to toxoplasmosis infection, which in turn may affect the growth and development of the child or lead to problems such as miscarriage. At the same time, the uterus of a pregnant woman grows larger with each passing month, making it more difficult for her to move around. If they come into contact with pets during this process, it may lead to an accidental fall, causing unnecessary injuries. Therefore, it is not recommended for pregnant women to keep dogs, while minimizing contact with pets such as cats and dogs. Whether it is a stray dog or a domesticated dog, there is no guarantee that a perfect deworming can be done. Therefore whenever there is contact, there is a risk of contracting Toxoplasma gondii and affecting the development of the fetus.
