The second placenta did not come out with the puppy...it was basicially sucked back in...we had VERY little cord to work with and the puppy came out breach and gasping. I worked on him for a while and he is now on the heating pad with his sister and they have both nursed.....Geoff just now got him to nurse and he has stopped gasping. The girl has only nursed for a few minutes but has stopped....is this okay? What about the placenta that went back in?
I CANNOT stop shaking
oh, wait,..geoff said she is pushing again. be back! |
Yay!!! Congrats...........oh finally, what a relief in the works for you. Sounds like Livi is doing great!!! Sure it's okay that the girl nursed for a while and stopped, she'll nurse more later I'm sure when things settle down. The placenta that went back in will hopefully come out with the next pup. Just keep track and it they are not all accounted for in the end, then a trip to the vet for an oxy shot is in order. Congrats again Tammy & Livi!
