I just got back home. It was exhausting.
Let me just say that we have 1 little boy. I do not know how much he weighs but he looks really good and screaming really loud. I managed to convince the assistant to let me take a photo and they took him back to keep warm. he is full term with lots of tan hair.
I have one word of advice for EVERYONE and ANYONE expecting a litter. Trust your gut! The emergency vet yesterday at another Hospital told me that this was most likely her mucus plug. I didnt buy it at all. Thats why I could not sleep lastnight! You dont have to be super experienced to know that this was not a mucus plug. Even though I must have asked a zillion people,I knew this was a placenta that had torn.
The vet today gave me two options. Take her home and see if she starts pushing or c-section. He said the pups most likely would be dead if I took her home but I could bring her back to get the pups out.... I looked at him and grabbed the napkins that were soaked with green discharge and told him " this is not a mucus plug and I know 1 puppy is dead in there. I told him the Xray showed 2 puppies but I deffinately heard 3 heartbeats. They did another Xray and in fact there were 3 skulls! They took her in for the C section. I waited like 2 hrs. He came out and told me they took out 3 pups and 1 was born dead froma torn placenta...duh! Well there was 2 alive. But he came out like15 minutes later and told me the 2nd had passed. I sat there frozen and just said "ok" Then called him back and told him " Do whatever you have to for that last little baby,please" I didnt leave and sat there another hour , I wanted to make sure Lola and the last pup were ok. He came back after that other hour and told me that I had a baby boy that looked really good.
I had her spayed also today.Lola's uterus was torn and was going to rupture!!! He told me I made a really good call when I said to take the pups out because Lola would have died if I brought her back home.I am numb right and want to cry and I know I will breakdown later on today.
I'm still not ok because I want to bring Lola & her baby home tomorrow. I dontthink I could stand it if they told me he passed also. So PLEASE keep this little guy in your prayers.
I really enjoyed with all my heart the whole experience with Lola ,believe it or not. I feel I would love to LEARN ,learn ,learn and possibly help out a breeder I know in my neighborhood and one day.Ina few yrs maybe I would try this the right way.It was a rollercoaster ride but I think it sometimes is.
I dont know how much he weighed but he looks at least 4 oz
Lola is doing ok but I need to call them at 5:30 to see what they say about her possibly going home tomorrow.
