Jessie Jessie is on day 57 pregnant. It will be her first litter. She weighs 4 pounds. The Xrays showed that there is definitely 2 pups. I am a bit nervous. What if she wants to give birth during the night and I am asleep. Will she cry that I can wake up ? We dont want her to sleep in our room, cause she will get on the bed with us and I am afraid that I will lay on her. Am I stupid ? What will the male do if she gives birth. Will he bother with the puppies ? What do you think about an antibiotic (sinulox) 5 days or so before the birth ? |
whelping Start now taking her temp AM/PM..that will give you a clue. If you can not have her close at night..then set your clock to check her every 2 hrs. Your girl is tiny and needs to be watched very closely. The first sign of trouble and yiu can call the vet fro a section. Never heard of an antibotic given before whelping...not sure why??? I will tell RiniW to read your post, she is an RN and knows canine meds also..best wishes |
Pat I just looked it up, sinulox is a broad spectrum antibotic most active ingredient is amoxycillin and clavulanic acid...googled it and seems mostly available over seas Benina, what is the purpose your vet prescribed this before whelping? I agree with Pat your baby is very small she needs special attention, small moms are notorious for c-sections. |
Sinulox ?? The antibiotic (Sinulox) just for in case a minor infection occurs. Although I've decided not to give it to Jessie. She is very healthy and also does not mingle with any other animals except my male yorkie. I think what I actually wanted to say is that her environment is very secure. Also we stay in a townhouse , so they dont even move around outside much. The other vaccines she got (5 in 1 and the Coronavirus shot). I will defnitely set my alarm during the night. I am so nervous that after this I think I need to go on a relaxent for a while. Tee-hee. I am sooo greatful to u guys & gals. Thank you and will keep you posted. |
Jesse We have been following your posts since Jesse was bred... I know you are nervous..best wishes..it will soon be over. |
Today is the day !! Day 63. This morning she didn't want to eat. She just wanna sit on my lap. I dont know if I am just hearing voices, but I think I can hear the babies cry inside her tummy ?? Or is it just like when you're hungry and ur tummy rumble ? I've brought her everything to work with me and even the heating pad etc. I am very fortunate that it is ok at work. Will it not affect her if she is not in a well known place ? She is very secure though. I am alone in an office but occasionally people comes in. Every time somebody enters she is up and wanting to greet the person. I hope that it will be today !!!! What do you guys think (without even seeing her) There is a little bit of a "discharge" but it is transparent. I also could not take her temp, cause I dont have a thermometer. It broke week ago. Thanx. Ina |
Jesse It is better for her to be with you then at home alone..great. The clear discharge is normal..if you see any green, go to the vet right away. I would not worry about taking her temp now..she is due NOW and you are watching her closely. LOL Good luck |
I hope that all goes well today and she has her puppies, keep us updated when it's all over. Good Luck... |
Best of luck with your Mommy to be!! Yes, please keep us posted... I will be thinking of you and watching anxiously to hear a good report!! Joy |
she is fortunate to have you watching over her ;but I would prevent others from brothering her when she goes into labor; jerry |
How exciting. When my pom gave birth I wasn't here. I was so upset that I missed it. I was very lucky everything went ok for her. She was only 4 lbs and gave birth to 4,,,, 2 boys and 2 girls. Hope all goes well for her. |
Yes yes she just had 2 puppies. a boy and a girl. All went well and they look very healthy. Round about 4,5 ounces each. Will post pics as soon as I can figure out how to reduce my pics. It is 21:45 in South Africa now and I am off to bed, although I am a bit nervous that Jessie will leave them cold ?? Thank you again to all and everybody for their advise and good wishes. Good night !! See ya tomorrow. Ina |

jessie Wow I was wondering how jessie and the puppies are doing? :) dianne :) |
They are doing VERY well. Just took the 2 little ones for tail docking. And they still doing well. Thank you for your care and interest. |
Jesse That is such good news...you know we were all concerned for Jesse and her size. She has done so well. Keep them warm and all should go fine. It is good for a small mommie to have a small litter. |
