Things to remember. The ova (eggs) are ready to be fertilized as they reach the uterus and break down if not fertilized within 48 hours. The male sperm live up to seven days.....So, all is very dependent on when she ovulated.......She may have ovulated 2 days after her last tie....all very dependent on her cycle. |

As far as leaving your house since Monday....don't plan on leaving after the whelp.....and least not for any great length of time and making sure someone is with her and the pups. Breeding is not an easy thing....we give up alot.....Christmas, Thanksgiving, Birthday's, Weddings.....sometimes are non-existent. Why do we do this, because we're nuts!!!!!!!!! I remember my very first breeding....took my girl with me to my mentors....Said I'm here until she whelps......You entrusted me with this gorgeous bitch and I'm not taking her life into my hands......well we stayed from day 58 of her first to day 63 of her 2nd.....We were scheduled to leave on the following morning to a dog show....As we sat and watched her and watched her, she gave us no signs......at 9 at night on day 63, the biggest contraction went through her body......she'd given no signs that whelping time was here......she whelped 3 puppies in 3 hours.......So, being prepared is wonderful, but each whelp is different with a different set of events....some not even in the books. |
Well, I will feel real bad for y'all if I have to wait 4 more days, lol. Just allow me to apologize in advance for annoying everyone, lol. |
lol :D |

You aren't annoying....... |
I was just like you when I was waiting for Livi to have her babies....I was sooooo nervous!! I had no idea that I was about to stress and worry even more. It's like Mary said, be prepared to be stuck at home with those precious little beings. I did not leave Livi or her baby until he was 6 weeks old (I probably waited longer than what I needed, but we went through a lot with these babies). The first outing, I was VERY VERY stressed and worried....and that was just to ride with my husband and children to pick up a pizza and a few other things. We were gone one hour that time and I can't tell you how fast I ran to my bedroom to check on Livi and S'mores once we got back. ;) You will be fine....I feel for you because it wasn't too long ago that I was going through what you are. Sending positive thoughts your way~ Tammy |

1 Attachment(s) Thanks for the encouragement. I really want this to go well. For her pups but mostly for her. That thing you all were talking about earlier in the thread about your emotions and feelings....I feel that even now already. I look at her and feel terrible yet excited at the same time. She can't even clean her parts....it's so sad. I'm attempting to attach a belly pic...she is super lazy today.... |

That is a sweet belly pic. Give her a kiss for me! And we will be thinking puppy thoughts for her all day long! Tonight is the night! |

I think my daughter giving birth was less stressful than Kalina because my daughter had well-trained doctors and nurses right there with her the entire time. Poor Kalina only had me and I was VERY nervous. :) |
