| I had a puppy unable to be delivered because it's chin was caught in the mother's cervix bone. The hind legs were presented, but he vet had to emergency deliver by inserting a long tube attached to a tube filled lubricant, that and giving the mother a POP shot so she'd bare down harder.

| We are on our way to the vet's office. She has to come by my house to get there so I am going with her. I will post update when we get back. Keep fingers crossed that all will be well.

| I've never heard of this before, but it seems like the uterus would have contracted by now. How could the baby get out now? And if Mom is relaxing and nursing, isn't labor over? I would already have been at the vet's if it were one of my girls. Waiting can only put Mom and the unborn pup in real danger. I hope everything turns out well. How scary this must be. |

| I'm glad she decided to go to the vet and I'm very glad you are going with her! I'll be looking in the morning for an update and Ihope everything is okay with mommy and the puppy; they must really be exhausted by now. I'm keeping my fingers crossed!

| I just got home.... There was 1 big puppy in her still, they tried the shots and mom pushed but no baby. After 5 hours of letting her try to deliver the pup, they have now decided to do a c-section. We still do not know if the puppy is alive or not. They had an emergency case come in so they said to go ahead and go and they would call as soon as they did it. My girlfriend had to get back home since her hubby had to go to work and there was no one to watch their daughter. So far the bill was $1700 and that will include the c-section and spay. I am going to lay down for a little while but as soon as I get the call on what is going on, I will post it. There is still a slim chance that the pup is still alive.

Living My Yorkie Dream Donating Member | WOW! What a thread....24 hours between pups???? I've only had one litter so far. The last pup born went just a little over two hours since the last and I was a nervous wreck. My female was not having contractions anymore that I could see, so we were on the phone with, then off to the e-vet ASAP at just over the two hours. They did an xray and the pup was just not moving down into the birth canal...they gave her a shot of oxytocin and the pup was born alive and well shortly after. WHEW! Hope your friend did not wait to long. I will say a prayer that mama and baby get through this okay and I will check back later for an update. Hugs to you for being there for her and to your friend for the stressful night she had.

| Update... They still have not done the c-section yet!!!! If there was a chance that the puppy was still alive, I doubt it is anymore. I can not believe that they are still waiting. We left at 5 this morning and she was getting prepped for surgery, at 8:45 she still has not had it and was told it would be in about 30 more minutes. I would have been SCREAMING by now.

| C-Section was done...there was a little girl that is now in heaven. She apparently passed away long before labor even started because she was already severely deformed. So at least we know that the wait did not kill her. Mom is fine and the 2 baby boy's are doing wonderful. They will get to come home today and mom has been SPAYED!!!! I think the vet felt that the pup had already been gone as to why they keep putting it off, but darn....they could have done it a lot sooner. Thanks everyone....it really helped her knowing that others were thinking of her and helping her out. Now if nap time would get here soon, I would be okay also.

OMG I am in shock too! Is there another er vet anywhere nearby?? Geez, I think this vet is totally irrespomsible. Sorry, but that is outrageous! Just read the update.. sorry about the last baby.. but I still think that the vet is irresponsible. If he felt the baby was alreaDY GONE.. HE SHOULD HAVE DONE THE C-SECTIOM RIGHT AWAY.. THAT CAnnot be good for the mother.. he could have lost BOTH of them.

| She did have the option of taking the dog when we left at 5 this morning to her regular vet, but they were prepping her for surgery so we all thought it would have been done as soon as we left. If she would have know that they were going to wait even longer, we would have taken her to my vet who opened at 7:30 and he would have had her in by 8. Her husband is probably going to be the one to pick her up this afternoon and I am sure he will give them a piece of his mind. Then again, I won't know until she tells me. I am just glad that mom and the 2 babies are fine and not expected to have any problems for this.
