Hello everyone, I have a question I was hoping you would be so kind as to help me out with. How long after the water breaks does the first birth occur? Today is Bella's 61st day and her temp is 97.7 as of 2:30pm this afternoon. No panting, but plenty of digging in her whelping box. I'm guessing by the temperature drop I will have puppies within 24 hours as I've been keeping a monitoring chart and she's been 98 or below for the past 12 hours.
