So no signs of external pips yet.. what’s the normal time frame after internal pips before we see external?

Normally up to 24 hours, but with smaller air cells, I like them to happen within 12-18, so they don't run out of air. The air cell is there for them to breathe until they are fully ready to break out. But I think you said they looked much better now, so hopefully it will be soon!

Hopefully! and yes the air cells were MUCH larger than they were a few days ago! I will keep you all updated when I get home this evening!

It is actually not Wiggles that cheeped this morning. It was another one, I was surprised because I thought Wiggles was the last man standing
