Hello - how are things going? Being nervous is very understandable.
You will notice her behavior change. Do not leave her. You said her temp was 98.9...have you retaken it? If its staying down then she could have them 12-24 hours from the temp drop
you will notice small contractions. and possible small pushes. The babies are moving down.
I would also call your vet and let them know whats going on. Always better to be safe than sorry. That way they know.
keep her in the whelping area, have your supplies ready and most of all good luck! wishing you a safe, healthy whelp.
