One of the main reasons why animals are abandoned or why they leave, they give, sacrifice , is an unfounded fear that was generated in families expecting or have just received a baby. Nearly 30 percent of cases occur in one form or another are related to pregnancy or newborns.
Our society, suddenly seems to have distanced itself from nature so that the expected or having a baby creates a kind of hysteria about hygiene where the pet has become the main aggressor.
Then I interviewed Dr. Valls, a physician at Gynecology Clinic and I give the example of his patient María del Mar, to bear witness that there is no reason why both the dog and cat home with you leave home and pose a risk to health. But first let me remind you that until very recently (in fact still exist) people lived close to all types of pets. This was our way of life. In fact people continue to live among animals today are stronger, more sociable, and more aware of the nature. We also know that people living in the country (although they are surrounded by cows, pigs, chickens, dogs, horses and cats) are healthier than not that we crammed into the city. In fact, diseases of today have little to do with animals, but rather are related to pollution, stress, and crowds of people in buildings with poor ventilation and artificial light.
is irrational to think that our dog or cat can harm us or our children when the health of our pets is controlled more than ever (vaccinations, parasite prevention, pesticides) Our obsession with hygiene, reach such a level that begins to turn against us, causing allergies (dust mites), respiratory problems (asthma, bronchitis), skin problems (psoriasis, eczema, dandruff). Our immune system becomes weak for lack of aggressors (bacteria) and our skin vulnerable to be continuously stripped of its natural protection by soaps and shampoos. It is even said that household chemicals are associated with cancer.
Dr. Valls and María del Mar we show that pregnancy can be carried out in the company of animals to take certain minimum precautions, and that the baby can be born and grow up healthy, too between animals.
Dr. Porcel Magí Valls and studied medicine and graduated in Gynecology Clinic in 1968. He has worked in the Clinical Hospital in Badalona in the Maternity Hospital of Santa Coloma and in the city hospital of Bellvitge, Barcelona. Lives at home with two dogs and her children "that fit at home and in-laws have a house pagesa where they have cats, dogs and pigs.
Dr. Valls, you are the gynecologist Maria del Mar and from the beginning and at all times not suggested he should do something about their pets. Nor is encouraged to change their jobs as caretakers of animals in a shelter.
What are your criteria on pregnant women and pets? What risks are real and which not?
First, pregnancy is not a disease, is another stage in life is normal. It also assumes that the health of animals is controlled house and that takes a minimum of hygiene (washing hands) Also a woman does not have to leave their profession, and if you are accustomed to it, go crazy if you suddenly does nothing. Mar's work is still healthier to let the outdoors and moving. Anyway, working with animals is possible if health permits. In the case of the Sea, has had a wonderful pregnancy and has been able to stop. I also that animals can live peacefully with a minimum of hygiene and continue doing the same.
Is there a potential risk?
None if the pregnancy is progressing normally. We must take action and work associated diseases. Working in a shelter, take care that a large dog will not pull, but still you're more likely fall into the street or pull you neighbor's dog. With cats you have to have more health (avoiding contact with feces, scratches) but do not forget the cat, already is a very clean animal. With the dog, and normal hygiene is sufficient.
Today, many couples or women change their attitude towards their pets as they become pregnant. Fear often caught and disposed of the animal.
Do you think this behavior is due to ignorance, or may have to do with the attitude of some doctors?
I think it's ignorance. There is no reason to leave. Today we go to such lengths to hygiene, especially when it comes to our children that we are making faint. The child grows up in a sterile environment and in hits the streets or living with other children spend their time constipated. Look at the children of peasants. Nothing happens to them and are also stronger. Even leishmaniasis need not be hazardous.
What would you say to pregnant women about living with animals? What would you say to couples who already have children and also live with animals?
First, I suggest you follow the same rhythm, you just have to be more careful when playing in the case of large dogs. You have to lead a normal life. I just do not recommend is launched to buy a puppy at the same time. Just because this is more wild and not understand that a baby is tricky.
it is important to deal with the animal before, even would not hurt to pamper a bit more to avoid jealousy. It should be just a bit of psychology and common sense.
Finally, allergies in children are usually attributed to animal house, more cats than dogs, well most dogs long hair short hair, but the end is more likely to be an allergy to dust mites.
The case of María del Mar
María del Mar Martínez Biayna Canópolis volunteer arrived. Quickly understood the philosophy of the shelter and he won the hearts of all. Trifolium the time spent after three months and gave us the good news: Ocean was to become a mother, three dogs and five cats at home. His attitude from the beginning was exceptional and worthy of admiration. Her pregnancy was not going to disrupt your work, because the last thing I wanted was to leave Canópolis dogs.
As the state evolved in the shelter tasks adapted to their physical capacity. He stopped doing the heaviest work to help cure and medical care of the store and coordinating volunteers. But if you reduce your responsibilities she drew strength and will to carry on doing many things. Often you could see it beaten into the ground trying to get a dog from his bent igloo or curing a few. The truth is that all that we were impressed with her work and admired his joy and his belief that his son, Arnau, you had to get used to this whole world, for her animals are her life. Mar
was working at the shelter until the day before birth (the photos at the shelter were taken two days before) Arnau was born in the hospital by the hair, beautiful and weighing three kilos and a half. Low Sea is now enjoying its first months of motherhood, but wants to get back in Canópolis. Every Saturday at the shelter is full of energy to do volunteer work. The child is left to her father at home with three dogs and five cats that have accepted a Arnau maravillosamente.
El ejemplo de Mar es realmente uno a imitar por las mujeres que tienen animales o que piensan tener uno. Todos sabemos que los animales en casa son una gran experiencia. Es muy triste que esa relación que nace entre nosotros y nuestro perro o gato se rompa por padecer de miedos que no tienen razón. El riesgo de contagio de alguna enfermedad es muy remoto con las costumbres higiénicas que tenemos hoy en día y teniendo psicología y buena información, los animales no tienen por qué significar un peligro para un bebé o un niño. Parece ser que combinar niños con animales resulta ser todo lo contrario, significando para nuestros hijos una fuente de educación y un constante objeto de alegría. It is said that children who have grown up with animals then people are better adapted to society, with strong capabilities to communicate with more positive qualities: knowledge sharing, wanting to help, social conscience and with great respect for other beings and nature.
hope that this message has been a source of information and motivation to give pause to all those people now have doubts about your animal. My desire is to lose that fear and always choose the path that is worth more.
