I am so happy my baby is not in labor. New problem....Doc wants to try natural birth , but I may have to make a emergency trip if big one decides it is too big. My mentor breeder said that she would drive up here ( 2 hours away) on Monday and stay the week with me and my pregnant little girl.
Wow, glad to hear that you have an experienced hand in your side. She will be able to judge if a scheduled c-section may be the better approach or if it is worth to wait for natural delivery to happen. Your experience just makes a perfect proof of why it is important not to delay a "vet call", one way or the other it worked well to your side, you are now aware of the big puppy. Just a question: are you familiar with "water puppies"? you may want to read some about it , Hopefully this will not be the case and you will have a perfect delivery and 4 healthy pups.
Blessings.
XOXO
