[carmen in nj]

please don't give her too much chicken broth is high in sodium and not good for her, I give my girls that are in the first stage of labor a half a cup of red rabsberry leaf tea, is great for them, and not high in sodium, also hold a bit on the calcium , since is been proven that too much calcium before whelping can cause uterine inertia..
just be vigilant and get a hold of the tea you can buy it in the supermarket or your natural vitamin stores..
hugs,
