I did ask the vet what he thought about Roxie being able to deliver the puppy, and he was very vague and acted like he didn't really care. He kinda held up his fingers to the puppy's skull, on the xray, and then did the same to Roxie's pelvic xray, and told me it appears that the puppy will fit. But he didn't take into account that the pup's skull had 10+ days of growing to do before it has to come out! I want to get a second xray on day 60 or so, but I'm not sure if I have the extra 150 dollars for it, if she does indeed need a c section later.

I guess that's where I made my mistake. I gave her too much calcium and she didn't have contractions like she was suppose to have. The doctor tried 2 oxy shots and that still didn't work. That's why she had to have a c-section. I have said that if she has to have one this time, we will get her spayed during the procedure. I just hope this one is much different than the first. |
