I have a couple of questions about my pregnant yorkie. I bread her on September 8,10, and 12. Do you figure 63 days from the first breed counting that day? Would you expect she would have them on November 9? She was small (3.4 lbs) before breeding and she is huge now compared to her original size. Her belly lumpy and I have been taking her temperature since October 7 which was 99.3, October 22 it was 99.7, October 28 was 99.3, and today it is 99.0. Isn't this temperature lower than normal? This morning I checked her nipples and there is milk already in the bottom four. Is this ok? Is it common to deliver early? At what point should she not be left alone? She has always been very needy and affectionate and I want to be there for her. Please give any advice you can.
Thanks!
