Partipaws Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 oh geeze I would be uncomfortable with that belly!! look at it!! its almost touching the ground - lol I can't remember if you mentioned a count on puppies - do you know roughly how many she is having? I will jump on the band wagon and ask for one of scarlet's puppies as well Not long to go now - what colour are you expecting? Only a little more wait for me to go too - she is still holding off which is good!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kelpiesrule Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 Phoenix is starting to slow down with her food, she is an inhaler but when she had brekky this morning it looked like an effort for her her temp was 38.1 last night, 37.4 this morning and 37.3 now...does the temp drop suddenly or gradual? still hoping for birth 1st dec !!

Ozstar Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 The temp should drop down around 36.7-36.9 Leanne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Partipaws Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 That is sounding exciting kelpiesrule! All the best with everything My girls temp has dropped this morning quite considerably! she was 37.4 most of yesterday and last night but this morning she was 36.4!!! She did however have a drop in temp saturday morning - so I am just wondering if I did not get a good reading - so I will take her temp again soon to see if it continues to stay low? Both my vets suggest this thermometer so it can't be too wrong - maybe just my human error!! lol She seems happy - but she is certainly getting uncomfortable - she has been sleeping flat on her back the last 2 days - her pot belly poking up to the sky - its pretty funny - but also a good time to sit and quietly watch all the commotion going on inside her ;) Ozstar - I think Scarlet has the most pretties head I have ever seen! no wonder everyone wants puppies from her I have changed my mind - i would much rather her - ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aziah Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 When is she due PP? That's a really decent drop, the temp won't necessarily stay down and it's likely you've caught it at or around it's lowest point so you could take in an hour and will be back up again (that's how easy it can be to miss).

Partipaws Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 She is due at the earliest on the 3rd - but vet seemed to think that she has more then 2 pups in there which is a fairly decent litter size for a pom - he thinks certainly 3 but maybe 4 - she did come from a litter of four but she is much smaller then her mum - and shorter in back for a girl too - so maybe due to these factors she may come early??? When I check her temp I take 3 readings and average them - i do this in the morning and at night - but I am taking them when I see a sudden change in character with her - the thermometer does not seem to far from each reading, but I just do 3 readings at a time anyway - this morning she read 36.4 36.4 and 36.6 = average 36.46 --- now I have taken her temp again though she is a little more lively then before but not bouncing around or anything and I know you need to take it when they are quite - first temp 36.6, 36.9 and 36.9 = 36.8 I will just keep an eye on her anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shellbyville Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 Will do!!! She is huge and has been having bouts of panting on & off for the last few days, but I am pretty sure it is the heat. Her temperature has not dropped at all. She is officially due on Saturday. Unsure if she will make it to the due date, her body certainly looks ready, everything and I mean everything is big and has dropped!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Panxan Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 Well I still think my girl reabsorbed but as I have never had this before thought I would ask a few questions. She has had milk for about a week and been nesting as well. About a week ago her tummy had disappeared and she had a bit of brown discharge which was why I thought she reabsorbed. Her ribs are still a bit round looking but her tummy is quite thin (compared to a pregnant tummy) and she has just had some clear mucus discharge which is similar to her discharge with her successful litter. Could she have reabsorbed some and still have a pup or two up in her rib cage? I havent felt any movemnets either. She would have been due tomorrow. I want to hope but at the same time dont want to set myself up for disappointment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwaY Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 Bitches can reabsorb a few puppies, but still deliver a few pups. Get her xrayed to confirm if there is any remaining puppies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MissMonaro Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 WOW Shelbyville - your girl is huge !! Our girl has about 5 days to go too and we just took some more photos of her tonite. To protect her private parts I have added to the photos. She is panting and has been busy shuffling the paper around the whelping box....but we think that was only to hide the chicken wings we gave her.
