Video: Dog Mom Flaunts Her Baby Belly During Pregnancy Journey
It turns out maternity photos aren't just for humans. One pregnant dog is winning over the internet by sharing her growing baby bump in an irresistibly cute video. As she inches closer to meeting her litter, her owner captures each belly pop, creating a beautiful record of this special time.
Pixie, a Miniature Dachshund, is expecting puppies, and her owner has been sharing the progress of her pregnancy on the Instagram account @raws_doxies. In the latest video, viewers get a glimpse of Pixie's growing belly through a montage of short clips taken over the course of her pregnancy. The video begins with the text, 'Watch my belly grow.'
The video features Pixie lounging comfortably on a couch as her baby bump becomes more visible with each passing day. The days of her pregnancy are marked on a sticky note frame next to her, showing her gradual transformation. By the end, the caption changes to, 'Ready for my babies,' as Pixie looks calm but clearly nearing delivery.
The comments reflect a mix of admiration, empathy, and excitement for the little dog's upcoming transition into motherhood. One person wrote, 'She has a pregnancy glow,' acknowledging how healthy and content Pixie looks throughout the video. Another viewer noted the realism of the experience, commenting, 'The breathing heavier as she gets bigger is so real.' Perhaps the most touching reaction came from someone who simply said, 'I'm going to cry she's going to be a wonderful mom!!'
Pregnancy in dogs usually lasts around 58 to 68 days or roughly nine weeks. Because of this short timeline, changes happen quickly, and you'll need to be attentive to your dog's needs. Proper prenatal care includes high-quality food, vet checkups, and minimizing stress. In the final days, expectant mothers often become more tired and may seek quiet spaces to prepare for labor. As such, providing a warm and secure area for delivery can help your pooch feel safe when it's time to welcome her puppies.

Mom Blends Families 'So Hard' Newborn Needs Both Her Baby Daddies
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. A family online is leveraging their connections for a newborn's needs in an act of all-hands-on-deck parenting. An Instagram reel posted by friends Megan Stortz and Tiffany Paskas has offered a glimpse into the unique support system of Paskas, a new mother who is being helped by her husband, her husband's ex-wife and her new husband. Paskas and Stortz, both 30, spoke to Newsweek about the viral moment of co-parenting beyond societal expectations. "Blended so hard sometimes she needs both my baby husband [and] my ex," Stortz captioned the video. "Every dad is on duty here." The video captures Paskas' baby being lovingly attended to by her husband, Michael, and Michael's ex-wife's current husband, Travis.

Photos from Megan Stortz and Tiffany Paskas' Instagram reel, which show their husbands engaged in co-parenting. @momsoftampa/Instagram This scene illustrates the blended family thoughtfully created by the pair of now-best friends Paskas and Stortz. "We are a blended family that came about when Michael and Megan divorced," Paskas explained. Initially navigating the complexities of co-parenting, Stortz reached out to Paskas, seeking a healthier path forward. This outreach blossomed into a genuine friendship between the two women. Through this friendship, both husbands on each side ended up creating a friendship and all four adults found a healthier way to communicate for the sake of coparenting—as well as including their children from the new relationships into the mix. They said this inclusive approach shapes their daily lives, with regular gatherings for their sons' sports activities, shared family outings and casual meetups that allow all the children to connect. Michael and Stortz have two sons from their marriage, the oldest of which the four share custody of—and Paskas now cherishes the arrival of her daughter, her "rainbow baby," a joyous moment previously covered by Newsweek after Paskas' long journey with fertility issues. While co-parenting with four people naturally presents differences in opinion, the friends say the rewards of their blended family are significant. "The biggest joy is having such a big family to support and love our kids, so our kids truly have a village as well as having each other without needing to be bonded by blood," Paskas said. The Instagram reel, with both father figures present and caring, communicates the strength and unity of their blended family—and through sharing their story, they said they hope to offer a hopeful perspective on life after divorce. "We aren't trying to glamorous divorce, but trying to show people one of the positive possibilities that can come from a divorce," Stortz said. "It isn't always easy, and it isn't always perfect, but even the little benefits make it all worth the effort we put in."

Stalker put AirTag in victim's car to track her
A man who stalked a woman and put a tracking device on her car to follow her movements has been jailed. Northampton Crown Court heard Wayne Stead, 48, of Stimpson Avenue in the town, started harassing her, making threats and turning up unannounced at her home after their relationship broke down in 2023. He was jailed for two and a half years and handed an indefinite restraining order after pleading guilty to stalking involving serious alarm or distress. PC Rich Horsburgh from Northamptonshire Police said: "The ordeal that Wayne Stead subjected this woman to was nothing short of horrific." "Her bravery in coming forward, despite her very real fear that he would make good on his threats to harm her, is remarkable," he added. The court heard Stead started calling and messaging the woman at all hours of the day and night after their relationship broke down. He placed an Apple AirTag, which are designed to help people find missing items, in her car. Concerns have previously been raised about the devices being used by stalkers. The woman reported Stead to the police in August 2024, telling them she had moved into a hotel and was in fear of her life. He denied the offences but, before his trial took place, he changed his plea to guilty and was charged with 30 months' imprisonment on 28 April at Northampton Crown Court. He was also given an indefinite restraining order preventing him from contacting the woman or going near her home. A charge of burglary against him was dropped after prosecutors offered no evidence.
