If you are saying that this coming Tuesday will be her 63rd day, then today would be her 58th day.

My question is Tuesday the 63rd day of her last breeding? So a female can whelp anywhere from the 58th day of her first breeding to the 63rd day of her last breeding.

While temp taking can be an indication that her time is near. The temp must remain down for 12 - 24 hours....During the last few days the temp may fluxuate. I've had girls that their temp never went down.

My first suggestion is notify your vet if you see contractions beginning, just to prepare him, in case you need him.

I'm sure you prepared yourself buy obtaining all your whelping supplies and meds.
