So happy to hear things are progressing with Livi. May sound funny but talk to her as Im sure you do but talk to her about whats happening and whats going on. For example when she is having contractions talk to her about the contractions just like you would a human. Encourage and praise her.
This technique seemed to work with my female. She would freak the same way and bite the pain. So I would sit and talk to her. Seemed like she understood what I was saying and it would actually comfort her. While I would talk to her she would just stare at me and absorb what I was saying. Looked like she would block the pain, another thing I would do is lay on the floor with her and let her lick me. I would make it known to her I wasnt leaving her side and that it would soon be over. And by her third litter she wouldnt attempt to bite the pain.
Again wishing you and Livi the best. Keep us posted. I know there are a lot of us awaiting the new arrivals. |
