| Officailly in Labor~~~~Question please!! My bella maria sofia is in active labor Ultrasound last week shows 3 pups. By experience what is the time lapse in puppies being deliveried? 1 stage of labor last night digging,nesting uncomforatble all night. First pup born at 12:15 Still born, born with black and green on it. tried all the measurements ot bring life to it, didnt even take its first breath She is resting now, gave her some real vanilla ice cream, doesnt look like she is having any contractions, Vet is on call and says it can be hours??? How long is it usually in between the puppies being delivered? Thank you for your feedback. bella's Mommy |

Complication signs: If the dam has been pushing hard and steady for half an hour and there is no pup in sight, put on a surgical sterile glove and insert your finger in the vaginal canal, to feel if there is a pup in the canal. This is called "feathering" and sometimes will make the bitch get down to business and push some more. If the pup is right there, another few ushes should get it out. If not, alert your vet immediately. Other danger signs before, during, and after whelping - Call your vet - Constant haerd labor for more than an hour with no results - Green or odorous discharge from the vulva. Should be very concerned if this happens before the first pup is delivered. - An interval of two hours between pups with occasional hard labor - Any part of a pup stuck or protruding from the vaginal canal. - One hour of hard labor and no puppies - Three hours of no labor between pups and you think/know there is another pup.

| It takes a while to for them to get down the birth canal. Did the first pup present itself in the sac?

| Last Tuesday our vet did the ultrasound and told me about 10 -14 days more. We figured she was at least 48-50 days. The ultrasound showed calcifed bones and 3 pups. so its been about what 1 week now. I figured it would be between now and monday? Today is the day! |

This is what I would do. Get her into the vet right now? Do you have someone to drive you just incase she decides to whelp another while you are in route?

| I have Mommy and Daddy. So its hard to know the exact day but it was in the week of 2/21 to 2/26. By the way daddy is getting fixed after this. We had decided that before that we would let them mate once and after that one of them is getting fixed. |

Did you inform the vet of the the discharge prior to delivery of the first pup. If there is an infection, there is a possibility the pups may have an infection too. Now, to make you feel a bit better about the pup that didn't make it. Think of if this way, if the pup had lived, he may have had something seriously wrong with it. Remember, there is reason for everything, so hang in there.
