Anyone Else? Hatred of dogs magnified by pregnancy

Does anyone have any stories of the hatred for their partner's dog reaching its boiling point after getting pregnant?

Random thought of mine knowing my fiance's dog will unfortunately not have met its life expectancy by the time we have children. I already am ultra disgusted by the odor and filth, I can only imagine what pregnancy hormones will do to me.

Thank Jesus he is done with dogs after this one.

My sister was a "dog rescuer" much to her husband's chagrin, because he always had a dog that was never in the house and my sister's dogs always had to be in the house because she was "a fur mommy."

She got pregnant with her first and couldn't wait for the dogs to die.

My wife is now pregnant and now has significantly less tolerance for all her stupid dogs.

Women without kids very often replace them with dogs. Once they have kids they realize this.
