I woke up all excited, I thought maybe this morning was it, but nope!
At some point this morning Lilly had gotten gotten out of my bed & I woke up to find her in her whelping box! I realized within just a few seconds that she just couldn't get back into my bed so found a comfy spot to relax in. She wasn't panting or anything, just licking her lips alot. As soon as I was out of bed so was she. I took her for her pee, let her drink some water, then proceeded to check her temp as usual. I just about had a jammer when the thermometre read 101.7
Then I remembered I had put the heating pad on the one side in her whelping box just in case she decided to sleep in it & got cold
No wonder her mouth was so dry 'lol'
Anyhow, the vet called this morning to see how we were doing and assured me that she has no concearns unless we go past day 69, and not to worry.
