During the pregnancy I let them be around each other. I seperated them by the time she was about 50 something days pregnant.Once she had her puppy ,I kept her and the puppy in my bathroom until the puppy was 6-7 weeks old.Once the puppy was 7 weeks and 3 days old I put them together. She really did not like the daddy getting too close to the puppy. The daddy really hasn't shown any interest in his baby since.
You really never know how the mom will react until she is near the daddy. I wouldnt let the daddy near the mom during delivery.She will be nervous enough.
