She then began to slightly pant around 11:00 AM Tuesday, so then I was sure this was it! Again, nothing!!! Her temp last night was 98.6, and this morning was 97.8! I'm at the nervous just waiting stage, but was wondering if anyone else's girl had such a low temp, or long labor?? Ive never experienced one of my girls keeping such a low temp for such an extended period of time. I've got a vet appointment scheduled for tomorrow morning just in case. I'm hoping it won't be needed but better safe then sorry! I'm hoping that I am just over anxious (again!) waiting for my 5 new babies to arrive! |
Oh yes, I remember this information. If its any consolation, Ruby had a low temp a couple times before the whelp. She didn't show any behaviors except being really miserable until about one hour before delivery. I got up at 7:00 and she was just fine, went outside like normal.... then went again, and again, and then discharge, then trying to get into my closet, and by 8:10 she delivered her first pup. So, I think this is not unusual. But I'll bet when she starts, she will go pretty fast. Get ready mom.
