Someone posted not to allow the mother to nurse the pups while she is in whelp.
Actually the puppies nursing will help her to contract. Which is a good thing.
One great thing to have on hand is Calsorb, I use it only after she has delivered at least one pup. It will help to give her stronger contractions because they do tend to be weaker as time goes by.
They say the Calsorb doesnt taste good and some dogs will vomit after having it so alot of people mix it with nutrical or pudding etc.
I have not yet had one to vomit from it.Deana Prestigeous Yorkies

Deana, I saw that too and was going to post differently. I am glad you said something. I have also found out through experience that letting the pups nurse too as soon as possible also allows the pups to clear their throats. This is a good thing.
