Oh and Lexi whelped first litter started at 6 pm second litter 10:30pm and third litter 10:30 am. So she covered the whole clock. Good luck

Thanks, I'm not sure what a maiden bitch is ??? Ya all she has done this morning is lay on my bed and now she has started running around my kitchen trying to poop everywhere. It's dierraha and just little spots.

a maiden bitch is a girl that is having puppies for the first time, sorry, sometimes I get carried away, LOL usually they don't know exactly what to do , if you are an inexperience breeder you can miss the not so expected hints of whelping, specially it sounds like you are both maiden, LOL do you have a mentor you can call?
I just read your last post she can be trying to empty her bowels, keep her close and don't let her go outside, I have heard of new mamas having puppies in the yard because they know they have to push but they think is poop and is really a puppy...

Bigler_family · 03-21-2012, 06:27 AM

Oh okay yes we are both new to this and no mentor . We just wanted one litter for family we are not starting a business or anything. after this we are getting her fixed. Oh yes don't have to worry about that she is inside dog. She is laying next to me on my bed all sprawled out and wanting me to rub her belly. I think she is trying to get pups in right postion.

ok, just take a deep breath and relax, now all you have to do is the hardest part, WAIT, LOL, even after mentoring, helping friends and my own, i still get antsy when I have a pregnant girl, and Waiting those last few days is torture, she will go when she is ready, they love silence and a cave like effect, I make sure my girls know where I want them to whelp, we start sleeping in the puppy room next to the whelping box on day 59. make sure you have everything you need ready and handy, specially the oral cal plus, you don't want her calcium level going down after whelping specially with 4. NO calcium before whelping, but she needs Loads of it after, ingredients for whelping pudding, and drink and all the other necesities.
best of luck, wishing your girl a fast and safe whelping..
hugs,

Thanks Yup I have all that stuff ready and I made up her kennel she had been in their off and on the last 2 weeks during the day and everything. Thanks Yup we just laying around watching and waiting .

one of the best things someone let me know was to cut the umbilical cord and not let the dog chew it off. They can chew it to close and can cause problems. So I always clipped them and made sure Lexi left them alone. And I always let her eat one after birth. She always threw it up but vet said one and take the rest away.. But everyone does that different worked well for me... Also she will need food in front of her once pups are here.. I also had special food I got from the vet to give her while whelping just a little. She needed it between pups. She had large litters. 7 all three times I think you are getting close.

Bigler_family · 03-21-2012, 07:50 AM

I'm hoping we are getting close I'm exicted . Hope everything goes smoothly. She hasn't got off bed and staying right next to her daddy .

I let my mommas eat one placenta, the rest I clean up and discard, cut the umbilical cord, suction out the mouth, then let momma lick and clean the baby...that bonds the momma and the baby, and stimulates moms milk to drop and contractions to start for pup #2....

How is she doing ??

KYJ 12 · 03-21-2012, 05:03 PM

Checking to see if there's a puppy update. My girl whelped at noon. First pup was born at 120pm in the afternoon. Sometimes in busy households they wait until late at night bc it's quite. Hope all is well! Will keep checking for an update!

Bigler_family · 03-21-2012, 06:19 PM

Sorry havent updated sooner. No puppies yet !!! She is still resting on my bed and if she gets down and somebody walks by bedroom door she goes right back for bed. She has been leaking some fluid . Not green though . No yelping whining or anything !!!! I'll check back later and update if anything new happens

carmen in nj · 03-21-2012, 06:22 PM

horsnaround · 03-21-2012, 06:24 PM
