Merrirose Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 Looking big Lynai!! I have got 12 days to go today and we are big but not huge like we are ready to pop. Ella is wider near the ribs rather than through thee flank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jsk Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 Well we have 2 weeks until due date and she is HUGE. I will try and get a pic that shows how big she is but it's hard with all her coat, it covers how big she is. I have noticed that she is starting to slow down a bit lately.

Jsk Posted July 29, 2012 Share Posted July 29, 2012 It's getting very exciting!! 11 days at the most to go. Vet and her breeder thinks she will go a few days early. If I can figure out how to post a pic from my phone I will Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merrirose Posted July 29, 2012 Share Posted July 29, 2012 If we go off our last (and only) litter we have 5 days to go. Is anyone taking temps ect? Anyones bitches becoming restless? Grooming a lot, separation anxiety, whining a little or anything? I get paranoid and worry everything is a sign she is going too early. (Worry wart).

Jsk Posted July 29, 2012 Share Posted July 29, 2012 I have no idea how to do the temp thing and tried googling the info but came up with nothing as I suck at googling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merrirose Posted July 30, 2012 Share Posted July 30, 2012 You take temps about 4 times a day and when you get a 1 degree drop you know you will whelp in 24 hours or so. http://www.debbiejensen.com/temp_chart.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lynai Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 She came early, four boys and two girls. They all appear viable and have been nursing well. I have one small one I have to give extra attention too, but hopefully we will succeed!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
