Hi Everyone,
Just want to share this experience with everyone.
I hope it's helpful to those out there that want to breed.

About 5:00 PM Sept. 29th Lily Belle started acting uncomfortable
After only 20 minutes of hard labor, a puppy presented her head only about 6:00PM.
After 30 mins she went back into the birth canal,6:30. Lily's labor stopped.
I stayed calm for about 2hrs, okay that was enough.
I called my Vet, we meet at the office at 10:00PM. Still no more contractions.
He looked at Lily, said she is in distress, Her color was bad and she was slightly dehydrated. He put an IV in her, then told me she needed a C-Section, one of the pups seemed stuck and Lily stopped labor. Lily and the pups will not survive if we let her try normally.
At 11:30PM the C-Section started. Two pups were in distress. The 1st one was difficult for the Vet, Her head was stuck in the canal, but he got her.
Her tongue was blue grey with a slight pink, after 1 hr she was revived.
The 2nd pup need stimulation after 1/2 hr he was okay. The 3rd (Moose) was fine.

I have always was been prepared for this, and this was the 1st C-Section for my Yorkies.
Just to let everyone out there know. It doesn't hurt to read, read, read about ALL the PROBLEMS that may happen during Whelping.
All is fine and doing well.
Girl 4.9oz, 1st Boy 5.9oz, 2nd Boy 5.5oz
Enjoy the pics

They are beautiful. Sorry your baby had to go through all of that. But it is most definitely worth it. congrats.
