You can have the dog in the room, but maybe wag muna sa bed. But you have to check din kasi very carefully baka mag develop ng allergies si baby lalo kapag newborn. Baka sipunin due to fur, mga ganyan. We had to have our tiny dog outside the room nung nanganak ako para maiiwas muna si baby sa complications. May hika kasi ako, and hindi pa namin alam kung makukuha ito ng anak namin so iniwas namin sa lahat ng pwedeng trigger. You have to make the sacrifice po. Soon enough you can slowly introduce your baby sa dog niyo. Our baby is 1 yr old and she plays with our dog na since around 6 mos old.
