| Day 56! We will be having babies any day now! My little girl is on day 56. Yesterday she went for x-rays and has 2 little ones to deliver. Yes, I have OBSESSED reading everything on the internet; every book in the library and spoken to many with experience. Only this is my first time delivering yorkies. I have delivered much bigger babies (labs) I have my whelping box, towels, broth, gloves, ky, thermometer, and much more in a box. She has been very clingy, which is fine...I like having her nearby and I don't plan to stray far from home in the next few days. So here we go...any time this week!!! Wahoo! I want to thank this community. There is so much experience and information here........

| I think we're having babies tonight! Today is day 58.... She has been very restless and pacing. Not eating very much. Her temperature this morning was 99.6. This afternoon temp is 98.4. There is no sign of any contractions or any second stage labor. I have set everything up in our whelping room. I even put my coffee in there, a magazine and the charger for my cell phone. Called the vet to be "on call". Also,a friend who was a breeder for years, is on call. She is going to come over once labor begins to assist me (as this is my first with such a small dam). Ok...so it is only day 58 - not 63....and I'm nervous. My vet, who is not crazy about breeding, is assuming it will be a c-section...he is the same vet that told me to start her on calcium 2 weeks ago. Thanks to YT I didn't! I think I'm going to use my breeder friend and my gut instinct before running for a c-section. I do have to give the vet credit for being concerned-he has called every hour to check on her..........he means well. Dog watch-so exciting!!!! I'm going to try and attach a picture of the mama

Living My Yorkie Dream Donating Member | Good luck..........hope all goes well; sure sounds like you have everything (and everyone) ready and waiting. Hopefully not to much longer....but they have a way of fooling you. Have you checked her temp this evening?
