any puppies? |
We have puppies!!! It has been a grueling long 12 hours, but mom and babies seem to be enjoying each other. Momma started with the mild contractions and digging around 3:30 am....sometime around 9 am her contractions got "serious". First puppy arrived at 12:09 pm, male, .5 3/8 oz; Second puppy arrived almost an hour later, 12:59 pm, male, .4 3/8 oz; Third puppy wasted no time arriving and appeared at 1:19 pm, male, .4 5/8 oz; Last puppy scared me....did not arrive until 2:30 pm, male, .4 3/8 oz. The last puppy presented a brown fluid prior to birth and momma vomited between the third and fourth puppy. I had the vet on speed dial, when she decided to push him out. He was not breathing, so I had to break the sac and assist. He was pink within moments and on his momma teet. The only problem is that she never delivered the fourth placenta. I am probably looking at a visit to the vet in the morning to clean that out. She is still shivering, so perhaps she will still expel it. (any advise) Momma is washed up. Puppies and Momma are snuggled in the bed where it's nice and warm and comfy. I think I will enjoy a small glass of pinot grigio and watch the after glow. |
Oh how exciting! Yes enjoy that glass of wine...and you probably need some sleep! |
...and congrats!!!! |
Congratulations on your new litter. I pray momma and babies do well. I know you all are exhausted. |
Congratulations!!!!!!!!!! Wow what a busy day!!!!!! Can't wait to see pics!! |
Congrats!!!!!!!!!!:D |
Congratulations on your four little boys. I'm glad everything worked out okay.............it's tough on us when those what if's and/or should I's start popping in our heads. Enjoy & bask in the after glow. |
Congratulations on your four little bundles of joy! Looking forward to seeing pictures! :aimeeyork:aimeeyork:aimeeyork:aimeeyork Get some needed rest!! ;) |

Congrats on your new babies! |
aww how precious and little! congrats! |
Momma doesn't seem righti :/ She never did expel that last placenta. I was thinking first thing in the morning we would go to the vet. Just checked on her and she is shivering (like when she was laboring).....either she is going to expel it on her own or something else is wrong...........anyone with placenta experience? |
Congrats on the new babies!! Was she only supposed to have 4 puppies? Is it possible there is another one? The only thing I can think of is she has another puppy or she might have pre-eclampsia which also can cause shivering. I would contact your vet. Has she had anything to eat? |
