Ok, I'm nervous now! I took Grace in yesterday to get weighed. She has gained 2 pounds!!! Wow!! She is not due for another 1 to 1 1/2 weeks.

The vet took her temp & told me to take it today & Wednesday, average those, then begin taking her temp again, everyday, starting Monday, and when it drops below 100, she is more than likely in labor, whether she is showing other signs or not. She said at that time, if she hasn't whelped within 24 hours, bring her in immediately!

Ok, here's the deal. Her temp yesterday was 102.2. I took it just now, and it's 99.2. No possible way can she have these pups this early & they survive!!!! She is doing nothing unusual. She's eating bits & pieces, drinking, and right now she is sound asleep.

Can the temp drop this low & her NOT be in the beginning stages of labor?!?!?

HELP!
