I was going to comment on what a BEAUTIFUL family you have and that your daughter must look EXACTLY like you did at her age. Girl, you are BLESSED! Amanda, I would NOT take her for another x-ray. She isn't eating, that is a GOOD sign. Like I posted before, it is usually the FIRST sign. She will lay around, then start getting uncomfortable. When the digging starts, it will still be a while, so don't panic. This is when she needs to be in a darkened room with a soft light on so you can peek in now and then. Try to make it where a door won't be creaking every time you check. She needs to be uninterrupted as much as possible. You know how they say a watched pot won't boil....well, a watched Yorkie won't (seem to) whelp. Again, please stay calm no matter what. You will know when she is in the hard labor stage because she will bear down just as a woman does. Some lay to have them (mine do) and some stand and look like they are trying to poop them out. Some cry (mine don't) and some don't. It is her first time; I'd suggest taking notes on her actions if you plan to breed again. Trust me, you will be JUST as anxious next time and forget almost everything you learned. You'll think you'll remember every detail, but you won't. Taking notes will be very helpful.
