Did she poop before you took it this morning or after...I know it is gross but sometimes you can get a false reading...what we call a "poop temp" LOL if there is some in the way.

It is still early for her to deliver...so I am sure all is well.

Ewwwwww... I actually thought of that and wait for the morning #2 before I check her temp.... I am finding that her morning temp is lower than her evening temp on a regular basis... but she hasn't been below 99.0 except once. It is just like waiting for my own kids... I wanted to pull my hair out the last two weeks waiting and wondering = )

Good luck everybody. I have a feeling we are all going to be here in the morning with no puppies

stubborn girls!!!!

ROFLOL...They come when they are ready and not before...In the meantime they make sure we are all pooped out by the time they make their arrival!..Good luck everyone waiting for wee ones!

Man...I was scrolling through ALL these pages today and HOPING that someone had babies by now...I'm getting anxious FOR you guys...hurry up babies!!

Thank you thank you thank you for all the prayers today!! They worked...

Little Aidyn had become dehydrated yesterday, and blame it on my lack of sleep...that's the one thing I had forgotten to check for. Anyways, I got him in to be checked, they pumped him full of IV fluids (how depressing it was to see that tiny boy with a needle in him

) and gave him a shot of antibiotics. I fed him right afterwards, then again two hours later, and then the third time I went to feed him and he was already full!!

So he's back to nursing BUT I am still tube feeding about every 4-5 hours just to keep him good and full all the time. His tummy is round and plump, and he's crawling around on his mama and sister like crazy. Those fluids were just what he needed to get a jump start again. That's one thing I'm keeping on hand from now on that I didn't have...a bag of fluids JUST IN CASE. Boy that sure made a difference in my little man! He's doing well again right now...but keep those prayers coming...they've kept him alive so far ladies!! We appreciate ALL the support we've gotten here in this wonderful FRIENDLY thread!! You are all wonderful and I am so grateful!!

We're keeping our fingers and puppy toes crossed for some of those babies to be born tonight!!

Kayla's water sac broke around 2:30 or 3 in the afternoon, and she wasn't finished having babies until about 4:30 in the morning.

YIKES! That is a horror story! I guess as someone said, they come in their own time, no matter how much time it takes.

SOOO glad that Aidyn is doing better. You must be really tired by now with all those feedings. Keeping you in our thoughts. Have a good night.

I've noticed Ruby's temp is low each morning too. Thanks for the information, and I'll be sure to wait to check it tomorrow.

lovelilly · 04-15-2008, 10:08 PM

Yeah Aidyn... we knew you could do it

Lilly is fast asleep

Oh well tomorrow is another day

Oh wait... it is tomorrow

Just in case, I've made my whelping pudding and given her a little taste to make sure she likes it. She does. The liver remedy is in the fridge, I have milk substitute, I have Benebac, I have dental floss, I have colored ties for the puppies, all the towels and pee pads and blankets are lined up, and the heating pad is plugged in (but not on). I couldn't be more ready....now if only she had the same mind set.

Let's hope we all get a good nights sleep and have those babies tomorrow. Good night and good luck everyone.

You're just too cute.

Heres the most IMPORTANT things I have on hand.
I have the rest. But find this is what I use the most.

Emergency vet number
Bulb Syringe
K-Y Jelly and gloves
Scissors & hemostats and dental floss
Heating Pad for babies
And lots of towels.....lol sounds like you're more then ready~!

Miss Nala is still here too..Shes staying in her whelping box.
But no signs of active hard labor..
And her temp was back up a bit too..
I thought for sure...I've never been fooled like she fooled me yesterday.
I'm not saying nothing again...till shes pushing...lol

I am so happy for him and you.DO not blame yourself for that though Nicki even if you had given it under the skin it may not have been enough and you would of had to take him in for a IV anyway.

Awwwwwwwww Nicki I'm so glad hes doing better.
He better stop giving us these scares.
Praying still for the lil guy

Been there done that with the bag of fluids at home.
Next time my vet told me she will show me how to use the ringers.
I had "puppy flu" one time with 6 week old puppies
I hate using the needles. But Aidyn is so tiny..I doubt you could even use ringers with tiny puppies like him. I dont know.

I'm glad things are looking up !!!

Tnyorkiemom · 04-16-2008, 04:23 AM
