They normally recommend getting a yorkie when your children are older becuase they figure your skinbaby can hurt your furbaby.
I actually got my yorkies after. My girls are now 10, 7 and my son is 2 turning 3. I haven't had any problems. The bigger girls were easy to teach what to and not to do with them. My little guy is a bit rough and lex (15 months old)can take the romping because he is almost 10lbs. Lulu (4 1/2 months old) is only 2lbs so we try to monitor his time with her. Overall I don't see why some people think it's not a good thing to have yorkies with children. It will be ok when the time comes. Don't worry about your future little one with a yorkie. The funny thing is that a lot of households that have no children also have accidents where the yorkie gets hurt.
Good luck on your future family expansions when you are ready.
