Now if she does go into labor and before we meet the vet, if she has one without problems then he will let her continue under his eye and be there just in case. Also he does want to see her by friday just to make sure all is well.
Thanks for all the help. Will post if something changes. | How much does this momma weigh and how big is the sire? I think it would be much better for momma and babies if she could deliver naturally. With a c-section there is a risk her milk will not come in and also the risk that she will reject the pups. X-rays can be deceiving as for the size of the pups. I know of a case where the vet told the owners the female had big pups in her based on the x-ray but when the pups were born the pups were just around 4 oz.
I know it is a tough call.
