You posted earlier her temp was 98 - that is a drop in body temperature - normal is 101 to 102.5. The hardening of the stomach is probably contractions so I wouldn't be leaving her alone at all at this point. I am glad she is having at least four that hopefully means they will be small and she will be able to deliver them without a C-section. The smallest female I have ever bred was 4 3/4 pound pre-pregnancy weight (but there have been natural healthy deliveries under that weight) - make sure you have the numbers and addresses of emergency clinics written down and easily accessible. |
