Well it's been a long haul & an extremely eventful & sad/happy evening to say the least.
Lilly began everything just fine... however we got to a certain point & after over 2 hours things wouldn't progress. Baby was breach. So with vet guiding me I proceeded to grab the little feet to help guide puppy out. Worked perfectly until we got to the head. Head was completely stuck & Mommy was already cleaning. Unfortunately she cleaned the puppy completely & severed the embilical cord before it's head was out & sadly puppy died while remaining stuck. Needless to say I rushed mommy & stuck baby to the vet after over 20minutes of struggling with lubricants and all. Somehow she eventually managed to push the 7.5 oz little BOY out along the way & by the time we reached the office she already had the 5 oz little GIRL half way out too!
(No wonder the little boy got stuck, he was huge!!)
The vet was kind of shocked at the fact that this one was breach as well... but more that she got stuck by the head briefly too! However we managed to get this one out in time & after about 5 minutes of rubbing and a little oxygen we got the little girl to cry.
We were all very amazed at how Lilly knew exactly what to do through it all, and hardly even cried in all that pain she must have been in. She just kept cleaning & doing her job right up until it was all over.
So I am extremely proud to announce we have a beautiful little female puppy... and Mommy Lilly & puppy are doing well.
We all had a little food & now both are taking a long well deserved rest.
I truly want to thank all of you for your support & I really don't think Lilly & I could have done this with out you all
Here is the long awaited arrival... little Miss Mallasses (Nick name for now) and Mommy right after the big ordeal.
I also added an earlier one of Mommy Lilly on one of her more cleaner days
