Honestly, I have never agreed with the advice I am about to give you.. but honey, at 3.6 pounds and with you not having experience, I would seriously ask my vet for his opinion on having her spayed before she is any further along. She really is way too tiny to safely have puppies even for an experienced breeder. I hope you don't think I am being rude, because that really ism't my intension. I seriously would be worried about your girl being way too small to have babies. All of the vets I have ever had experience with never "schedule" a c-section. They wait until the girl is in labor and see if she can deliver.. if she can't and you recognise the signs that she can't in time, then they will do a c-section. and that is where the problem is.. recognising when to call the vet.
