help preterm birth happening right now According to my caluclations my yorkie is at 53 days. She is pushing a bag with red at ther bottom clear at the top no puppy in bag . |
hope every thing goes good !!!!! |
help Is there any one online that can help me? Should I take her to the vet? Are puppies at this stage viable? |
i know NOTHING about this but if it were me- i'd be going to the vet ASAP |
oh wow are you sure of her date? that would make her what 9 - 10 days early. have you called your vet? I would call make sure some one is there in-case you have to take her in. The placenta bubble sometimes bursts and helps lubricating the birth canal, I would call a vet hun and ask them/ I know being born early some make it and some don't. you will need a heating pad and may have to tube/bottle feed if her milk has not come in. Nutra-Drops. Im sorry I'm not much help hopefully someone comes soon to help you. but you really need to call your vet. |

HUn I dont think any one from on line can help you. you really need to call your vet and make sure their there, if not get her to another vet soon. I was going to pm Sugar's Mom a breeder here. but it says shes been Currently Suspended. but I do know no one can really help you on line. the pups are early you need a vet. |
It says she first posted this about 30 min ago. I see shes off line now, hopefully on her way to the vets. I hope their not as early as she thinks and they all make it out. keeping them and momma dog in my thoughts & prayers. |

I would have been out the door to the vet with her but she caught us off guard. There were no visible signs of labor....just that her water broke and there was a pup's leg...no sac. I grabbed the baby's leg but Scarlett quit contracting and the baby went back up. This was a night time whelp so my wife went to get dressed after calling the vet to let them know we were coming. I stayed with Scarlett until she got ready then went to throw on some pants. While I did that, Scarlett had another contraction and the baby's legs were again presented. My wife grabbed them again and this time Scarlett contracted again and the baby came out. Wonder of all wonders, he was fine and this was about 7 minutes from the first presentation. We called the vet and stayed home for the rest of the whelp and she had no further problems but talk about an adrenaline rush...that was it! |

I look back on each whelp and each one is different.....But, as I think back, I liken it to the Keystone Cops. Question, your wife didn't pull the pups legs did she? |
Guess I was lucky with my girls. day 63 every litter. one died out of all litters stuck to big.tried to revive that one 30 min no luck. |

the one that died on us was legs first too but she was so stuck even with momma pushing.we didnt pull just held on all was out but head she could not push that head out. |

No, we didn't 'pull' the legs. It's more like just keeping a grip on them. Scarlett's second contraction (while my wife held the baby) pushed the baby on out. When I held the baby's legs earlier, she quit contracting so I had to release my grip. I had heard earlier that you can't kill a dead baby and for the sake of the Mom and the other babies, it's best to get that baby out but I couldn't bring myself to just yank it out. We had pretty much figured that first one was dead due to its being out of the sac but were very fortunate with the outcome. Had she not presented the baby again, we would have been at the vet's in about 20 minutes and I'm sure it would have led to an emergency c-section. |
I hope she has miscalculated. Maybe she'll post an update that everything has turned out good with mom and pups. |

My Tahlulah was in the horn without a sac for 3 hours while her brothers decided to come into the world first. She was born hind legs first, out of the sack with only the umbilical cord attached to her. Two days after the premature delivery, my Tahlulah had her first litter. At 3:00 in the morning she was in bed with me, I was attempting to calm her down. Anyway I heard a loud pop, and she began leaking, waited for contractions to begin, they did about an hour and a half later. Pup's head only crowned but could see that it was head up. Hubby reamed her with KY Jelly and assisted her with a warm wash cloth, by pushing her legs back when she had a contraction, once the head came through he gently turned it and out it popped, placentla attached. Second one was born without the sack but attached....3rd one was born (2oz) in the sack, hind legs first. All 5are 7 weeks old. |
The OP is in my thoughts and prayers. I hope she updates us soon. |
Checking in for an update. |
Update on Preterm labor Hello My sister logged on to YT asking for advise when I was on my way to Emergency vet. Izzie had a lot of green flluid and no puppy and I feared that the placentia was separating. Izzie had an emergency c-section, and had 2 little girls both were 4 oz, so I must have miscalculated. Only one of the girls survived, The little girl we lost had a very faint heart beat and a very distended belly, the vet says this is a sign that the heart did nt develope or the liver. when she tapped her belly after she died, it was full of blood. The other baby is being bottle fed since Izzie does not have milk yet, she did get an Oxi shot, so hopefully milk son. The baby is nursing on mom as well. Should I give her a taste of nutrical? I am so afraid of losing this baby too, and want to keep her strength up until Izzie's milk come. Thank you all for your prayers for Izzie and her babies. |
I am so sorry that this happened. I know it's hard when you loose a baby. I hope & pray that the other one does well. Hopefully Izzie will have milk soon. |
I am sorry you lost one pup but I am relieved to know mom and one baby are okay. Do not give the puppy Nutri-cal, it is not for newborn pups. They make a product call Nutri-drops that are for newborns. If you have the Nutri-drops then you can give the pup 1 drop. The best possible thing for the pup is nursing on her momma. Since momma only has one pup to feed then hopefully she will make enough for the little one to do well. The most important thing is to get momma to eat food. The pups suckling on the teats should help bring in the milk. Just make sure the teats do not get hard and impacted. You can give the momma a little of the Nutri-cal. Best of luck with your mamma and baby. |
