 temperature has dropped - sure sign?
I am the poster who posted last Wednesday, thinking Kiwi reabsorbed her puppies. Then it turned out she hadn't, but was having a singleton. This is her first breeding and mine.
Her temperature has dropped from 100.2 yesterday to 99.6 earlier this evening to just now 98.2, and there was some kind of dried, crusty stuff (kind dark and yellow mixed in color) on her that I think might be her mucous plug. I also think she may be peeing more. Is the drop in temperature a sure indication that the puppies will arrive within the next 12 -24 hours or is that not always the case.
She's not showing any other signs of labor - no panting, no restlessness, her appetite is still good.
I'm getting nervous here.... |
