1) Puppies are due Tuesday. The doctor said 4, maybe 5. Curious as to what you all see? Today is day 59.

2) Also, I am having a heck of a time do rectal thermometer. The first day I felt it was it accurate, then yesterday and today I am getting 98.6-99.0, however, at the Vet yesterday they got a 100.5. I went out and bought another thermometer just in case my first one was defective. The vet suggested I may be getting poop. Good grief, taking my kids temp was easier! LOL

3) Also, I have heard that Dams don't like to leave their pups the first week and I will need to feed her there. Do Dams leave to go to the bathroom? Do I encourage her to go?

Thanks for all your input, I am so thankful for this message board, it's been wonderful to read, I have saved so many posts...great info.

X-rays did not upload, I will post them in my album.
