Fur Babies acting strange

Just wondering if anyones fur babies started acting strangely before they went into labour?

We have a golden retreiver who is now 16 months and right before I found out I was preg he would sit near me and whine, once we had the scan and everything he stopped doing it. I've just noticed he's started the whining again, I wonder if he's sensing that bubs will be here sooner than we think?

My border collie x acted funny the whole time I was pregnant, he'd whine and put his head on my lap with an ear to my belly whenever I was sitting down. But when I got close to my due dates, about 6 weeks before the birth, he got a bit wierd and would nose my crutch (not normal or acceptable) and in my midwife appointment I found out that bubs had engaged in my pelvis. He'd obviously known that she'd shifted. He also got whiney whenever I was having braxton hicks, even the ones that I didn't feel, it could be your fur-baby is concerned because he's picking up on braxton hicks too. Pack your bag just in case, but when I went into labour my fur-baby wouldn't go near my tummy any more.

Thanks ladies, it'll be interesting to see what happens over the next couple of weeks I'll keep ya posted!

My dog started acting weird around the 35 week mark. We were induced at 41 + 3 so perhaps they're picking up on a change in hormone levels. They do know alot more than we give them credit for though. Like how my dog lies at the baby's door and starts to whine very quietly about 3-4 minutes before bubs wakes. I've checked a few times and bub us very much asleep when she starts this so they're pretty intuitive.

My cat would follow me around and lie and sniff every where i'd just been sitting (I have a weird cat) and the other cat didn't really change at all.
