also make sure you account for all placentas....if one looks like it is gonna go back in tie dental floss to it and hold on to it till she pushes it out.....it is gross but actually good for her to eat at least 1 placenta

This is starting to freak me out ! Lola is 49 days according to the first tie date that I witnessed in May 11. For the past 2 days I have seen that dark gross discharge stuck to her vulva .Tonight I felt the puppies moving around like crazy .She was sitting on my lap and started panting on and off for like 2 hrs . I was rubbing her back and not trying to make too much of it ,to show her I was calm. I decided to set up her whelp area in my bedroom bathroom.The door is open and there is a puppygate there so I can see her thewhole night since I put a nightlight in the bathroom so I can clearly see her from my bed. I have not noticed her digging though.

Chloe's temp is 98?! Please keep me updated.

Hey Genie,

Chloe was 100.2 at 8:10 this morning. After getting back from church, I took her temp - it was 98.8. She did this all day yesterday too. I have to go to a bridal shower but my fiance will be here.

UGH! I am supposed to work from 4 - 8 or so tonight. Marlon, my fiance, will be here, but I am so anxious. He isnt as anxious as me, but I am trying to fill him in on all the details.

I have heard from a breeder that u should only take temp 2x a day. U will make yourself CRAZY because their temps jump around all day. My dogs temp spiked before it dropped! Breathe girl! Watch her and breathe! Lol.

Cookie2 · 06-29-2008, 12:12 PM

JennyLee:Good advice and I think I will take it also! I know u should start taking their temp one week before the whelp date. So I will wait until the vet checks her out and agrees or disagrees if she is around 7 weeks or further along .I'll then start taking her temp around 10 am and 6 or 7 pm.

When they are showing signs of impending delivery and it gets closer to the due date I take temps frequently...If you only take the temps every 12 hours you most likely will miss the drop in temp...

from what i have heard from other breeders is in the 7th week take temp every 8-12 hours....8th week take temp ever 4-6 hours(awake hours)...and last 7 days take temp every 2-4 hours even during the night....

I have bred english bulldogs. I only took temp 2x a day. The temp would go up to 101-102 and then drop next time then within 12 hours labor would begin. With bullies I would call vet and next day we would deliver. If you are watching they give lots of signs. I also had 2 girls that never dropped temp!

how's the mommy-to-be this morning?

Chloe and Joey · 06-30-2008, 03:46 AM

Well, she is a mommy!!
The first one was born at 7:12 a.m. I think it is a boy.
The second one is on its way out. She seems to be finishing up with the first.
