THanks for the advice and web links. Well Gigi caught us all by surprise and gave birth yesterday! 5 girls and a boy ( I knew there were 6 )

So everyting went out the door but helping her. She was wonderful, but Vet said she's got a big birth canal, had absolutely no problems giving birth. All 6 born within 3-4 hours. Pups are healthy with smallest 3 at 100g, so a nice birth weight. Now we are all crooning and praising our big girl.
