| Wishing you and your girl a safe whelp. My girl just had 5 and that was easy compared to her behavior right now. Oh and my #5 had 1 1/2 hour wait from #4 to come into the world and it took him 25 mins. Actually once she was pushing it didn't take her long to pop them out, about 1 1/4 hour for the four girls. I felt very lucky! Keep us posted. Dion

| Any pups yet? If she's digging and panting it shouldnt be too much longer before she starts pushing. Mine started making frequent trips to the piddle pad and I'd notice her pushing when she'd pee. The digging and panting got more frequent. It wasnt long after that she started pushing in her whelping box. |

| No pups yetI called the vet. He said it can be 12-24 from the loss of the plug, which was at 7am this morning. But i alway thought it would be 12-24 from the lowest temp drop which was early last night? Does anyone know if dogs contract like humans at all? Like do their contractions get closer together and longer? |

| p.s. my girl would get up and pace, stop and push, pace some more, stop push. I was following her around with my hand under her in case one came out with her push. It was wearing me out so I put her back in her whelping crate and she went ahead and delivered in there. I had a workout that day.....was soooooooo sore the next day. |

| The new signs, diggimg and panting shows she is now on the other stage of labor, the vet is right about the plug , it can come 24 to 26 hours before the first puppy , that is what i had here before. All you can do now is get relaxed and watch, her contractions are positioning the puppies and opening her cervix, when she is ready you will see a "sack" coming first, do not mess up with it, do not poke it, let it be by its own, after the first water breaks you should have a puppy withing minutes or up to 2 hours, after the water breaks, if you see no puppy coming withing 2 hours is a trip to the vets to check calcium levels and blood work , and if needed be , safely call for a c-section. as you can see there are still a lot of signs and things going on. Give her nutrical here and there to keep her energy, labor is exhausting, i also chew a "tums" tablet and "spit" on the mouths of my girls at this point . Just to keep them from vomiting and give a little extra help as the calcium from the tums pass the GI , some of it gets slowly absorbed. Hoorayyyy ... we should see puppies anytime now ! XOXO

| Gosh, I have this picture in my mind of lots of YT members pacing up and down in front of the whelping box anxiously awaiting the birth of these puppies.
