hilaryo Posted November 14, 2011 Share Posted November 14, 2011 Around 3 days to go here. She was wormed around a week ago. Temp today was 37.3 at 8am and then 37.4 at 8pm. I bathed her yesterday, so in my honour she decided to start digging today - that was a waste of time ;) And of course she is still eating like a horse - literally! Full of grass roots and anything else she can find around the house and yard - as per normal. OH home tomorrow and Wednesday - so relieved about that and I'm on leave from Thursday.

Nevafollo Posted November 14, 2011 Share Posted November 14, 2011 nothing here yet... having a lazy day watching dvds with the whale!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jetpoint GSP Posted November 15, 2011 Share Posted November 15, 2011 Nevafollo I see your numbers are somewhat smaller - you must be relieved I had a full week off before Mia had hers, waiting, waiting, hold on a minute is she nesting....oh no, just trying to get upsidedown again! I then only had another 8 full days at home before I had to go back to work :-( Luckily I work shift work and was able to have my OH home before I had to leave most days. Next time i'm aiming for a good 3 weeks off after they are born and a week before hand. As we've only had one litter from her and she went right on time we don't know if she'll do the same next time. This next litter will be her last (she'll be 6) and then after that we'll start breeding with her daughter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hilaryo Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 Temp still at 37.3 this morning. She's booked for a section tomorrow morning but would like to see the temp drop under 37 before then. She's having this litter at my daughter's as she is home all day at with her 4 month old baby. I've taken just over a week off though to stay with her and then I have to go back to work Sara does all the handling and will do a better job of training them than me :D Fingers still crossed for 3 puppies!!!
