yes, it sounds like a uterus infection or tear, some vets do the oxy shot after birth, I do the red rabsberry leaf tea,for after whelping uterous clean up, it helps expelled anything left inside mom, I too take her temp once a day just to make sure she is ok, for the week after babies are born.. also I monitor her discharge for changes in color, texture and smell. after whelping care is as necessary as pre and during pregnancy care. sending prayers for your girl and you..
