Hello everyone. I made it to my test today (the one that Rosie was supposed to allow me to make it to) and when I came home she had threw up on my bed while dad was watching over her. Then we checked her temp and we have been using the kind that only takes 8 seconds. When I first started I also used a mercury one so then I knew what degree difference there was between the elec. and merc. and have been subtracting the difference in order to keep using the quicker one. Any way, I got a drop to: 98.5 (actually said 97.8 + 0.7 deg.) I am a little skeptical so far if this is the onset of labor though. She isn't showing any other signs yet. Is it normal to not see any other signs for a few more hours? I don't want to get too excited yet because what if she's tricking me? We are on day 61, 59, or 56 depending on which tie did the trick. Vet seemed to think the calcification of the bones in her x-ray indicates she is on the sooner end of this range, but who really knows. If anyone reads this and has advise or wants to say a prayer for us to have a safe whelp, that would be appreciated. -Melissa & Rosie.
Thank God I don't have to leave my house again for class until next Monday.
