Annie's thread- Five puppies! LOTS of PICS on page 10!

[Matthew3590]

I'll be here through BYC till about 3 am cause my sleep is so messed up. just as company cause I have no expertise in in live births of any form except I know when to pull a baby calf

 

[bossynbella]

well it is nice to know someone is here anyway. I think I may have seen a contraction, she is very restless right now, drank a bit more water, and lots and lots of panting, hoping for a pup or at least a water sack soon.

 

[bossynbella]

definitely saw a contraction! YAY should be soon then I hope, her stomach is so big, and has moved back toward her rear, I mean her baby bump area, its very hard too. So I am thinking puppy soon. Or at least a water bag soon.

 

[Matthew3590]

Hopefully she is already delivering by now! Waiting for an update

 

[The Wolf Queen]

puppy time!

 

[bossynbella]

Still no pups. She does not seem distressed at all, I was pulling out some of the ripped puppy pads and one was soaked, looked kinda like pee? but I never saw her squat, could of been her water breaking, not sure when that would of been though. She went out with me, on the lead at 1:55 and had a pee. Came in and went right back to the pool, and to tearing things up. I am not yet worried, frustrated a bit as I am tired, I know I will be fine once she actually starts pushing, having puppies, am already half way through 101 dalmatians. I'm starting to wonder if I will finish it before she has a pup. Working tomorrow is seeming like less and less of a possibility. Tomorrow night is when I'm suppose to go to my moms to spend the night for the garage sales the next day, as long as her and pups are fine I will still go, as DH can stay and watch them. She drinks off and on, I offered her a treat but she just licked it and turned away. She is laying down panting now. I wish she would just get on with it! poor girl is gonna be tired before she even gets to the pushing otherwise.

Hang in there, they're coming. (eventually lol)

 

[Matthew3590]

I am sure 101 dalmatians is not helping your case with the puppies

 

[bossynbella]

Probably not, but it was the only book handy, does keep my mind off of the amount of time its taking. Should I be offering her something? such as the chicken broth? or wait for a while yet? she wouldn't eat the treat? She wants me back over there, so I will go back to my book for a half hour or so unless something exciting happens. This is all Telmars fault he/she? said 4-5 before first puppy!

 

[Matthew3590]

I would offer her something just to see if she will eat it, but you don't want any poop/pee during birth and have it get all over the puppies. I would just read next to hear and constantly pat her.
