Congratulations on having a new baby boy!
I think you are a wonderful mother already and doing everything that is right for your little son, and for your yorkie. When I got pregnant, my husband and I had seven dogs, all various rescue dogs (one Australian terrier, one miniature poodle, and five mixed breeds, no yorkies).
We had to take drastic steps and it was a hard adjustment. In our situation, I only trusted our miniature poodle and one of our mixed breeds with our newborn, and that was with me in the room. The other dogs had to earn my trust over time. We kept all seven dogs, but eventually most the pack died off due to natural causes.
Our first little newborn is 8 years old now, and only one of those dogs is still alive.
I know it is painful and sad to see your yorkie less often. The temporary separation will give you the chance to bond with your baby without worrying. I think it is so exciting that you have a new baby and I would love to see pictures of him.
