We believe she is finally in labor, shes panting and whining. and her babies feel like they've moved into position, but now shes crashed and seems to be fine.
No not yet, I think maybe a few hours, shes getting more and more into the labor, we know shes in labor now, shes not wanting to follow my mom everywhere, which isn't normal for her, nor does she run to the front door when someone comes in, shes panting, and then sleeping a lot. Still waiting, not something I am good at, but me and my mom are sticking by her side in case of complications. If there is no babies tonight, we'll take turns during the night.
We have 5 beautiful pups, she did well through, it was fast too, went from 1 in the morning to about .. 3ish 4ish, the 3rd puppy was big though, but momma is doing fine as well as her pups
The one next to her leg on the left was the 3rd one, next to him is the 1st one, one ontop of the little black one is 4th, under 4th is the second, and then the last one. She made me nervous cause she kept biting their cords to short, we had to tie off one cause it was bit to short. We moved them to a heating pad when she began pushing out the next. Over all healthy chubby puppies
Cute! Yeah some mommas are over zealous and need to be supervised when cutting the cord. I usually cut and tie it, iodine it and let it dry a bit. I don't leave momma alone until they're all dry and then she usually isn't obsessed with cleaning them so much.
She finally stopped chewing on the cords, I think she irritates the crap out of them with her nudging them with her nose, trying to lick them while they are eating XD its cute. She was in labor for a long time, with the I guess first stage. She started the night of the 30th, and all day yesterday until 1 in the morning lol. Sure do love to pick times, she didn't allow me or my mom to sleep any. Shes a good first time momma. Didn't need any help, had to break the first bag though, well clean it off the face of the first pup.
