Bianca is a rescue I have who was given up 3 weeks ago from her former owners who irresponsibly bred her & then decided that they did not want to deal with pups...I am keeping her as my pet after she is spayed. Her two pups, Conrad & Joelle, will be placed up for adoption once they're 12-16 weeks of age.
Glad went well for you.....so many ins and outs and unexpected things that one encounters with each whelp. I hate posterior presentations, I've had one that had to be taken in for emergency delivery (no c-section), but his chin had caught on his mother's pelvic bone......doc inserted a long tube with a high pressure syringe attached to it within the syringe was gobs of luberication.....he shot that stuff into her next thing you heard was this loud pop and out came the baby....I was so glad I was there watching and learning.....

With the one I mentioned above, hearing the pop and then water coming out....I had been doing alot of research about problem deliveries....and the discription of what was going on with my girl was text book. It told me that she had 4 hours to deliver that first pup.....she did it it about 3...I was getting scared.....But, when that 2nd one was born out of the sack....I thought back to when I heard the pop, there had been alot of water.....so, both sacks popped internally.
