| HELP!!!! We're in labor!!!! Duckie is finally deciding to go into labor!!! She is having contractions, and pushing some but the contractions are not long and strong enough to get anything out. When do I start to worry?????? I haven't even seen a water sac yet. I just saw this greenish brownish blackish stuff on her newspaper and I don't know what it is or where it came from. Any advice would be great and any help would be great!! |

| She has been having contractions for over an hour and pushing every now and then. I can feel the contractions easing up and getting stronger. This might take all day at this rate |

If she has been pushing for over an hour you need to call your vet. << QUOTEI just saw this greenish brownish blackish stuff on her newspaper and I don't know what it is or where it came from.

| Sometimes it takes hours for the mom to fully dilate enough to push out that first pup. I wish you and the mom best wishes for a safe delivery. |

| Ok whew the vet says the same thing you guys say. They say as long as she's not constantly pushing for over an hour then she's ok. The yellowish greenish discharge is also normal. This is all just so new to me and I just want to make sure I am doing this right :::sigh::: With Daisy, when she strated having contractions, the first puppy was born within 30 minutes, so that's why I was beginning to worry. It just differs from dog to dog. |
