It sounds like she is close so unless you want her to deliver in your bed you might want to get her to her whelping box. You'll want to stay close so that she isn't getting up to come find you every half hour, and she will. This is a stressful time for her, she just want to know that you are there for her.

Not sure about mucus plug about a week ago she had a little discharge and a crusty on out of vulva but it didn't look like what I have researched on internet so I wasn't 100% sure if that was it. I have seen her eat three piece of dog food all day .

Yes I put her in her box and she is staying I'm laying next to her in my bed . She kept gathering all her toys and putting them in my bed. I ended up putting one of them in her whelping box and it made it more comfortable and I put others outside her box she is not getting up and down as much .

The crusty discharge that was on her vulva was pieces of the mucus plug shedding. My girl was constantly cleaning herself nonstop throughout her pregnancy so it wasn't noticeable her shedding hers but she leaked clear discharge a few mins before the water sack pretruded. I think your almost there. Can't do anything now besides being patient and waiting!

Were you able to take her temp recently?

Bigler_family · 03-21-2012, 08:18 PM

Well that's what I took it for , wasn't much though. Early this morning i took it when we first got up . Every other time today I have tried she would keep moving so I couldn't. Yes that's what I am doing watching through a peak in her whelping box and listening. She is doing a lot of licking.

Yea my girl hated the thermometer. Every time she saw me go for it, she jetted like lightning! Lol. Is her vulva area more swollen than usual? I saw my girl licking a lot and when I lifted

KYJ 12 · 03-21-2012, 08:29 PM

Up her leg the water sack started to pretrude.

Bigler_family · 03-21-2012, 08:44 PM

Yes it is and her back side is very swollen . As I'm laying in bed watching her she was shaking every few mintues well laying down then she hopped up and Just start nesting been doing it last 5 mintues .

Bigler_family · 03-21-2012, 08:47 PM

I think it is kinda funny where ever she lays in her box she has to take her toy and snuggled up with it .

Shaking can be due to the first stage of labor. Have you noticed any contractions? Nesting is a good sign!

KYJ 12 · 03-21-2012, 08:49 PM

Aww she sounds adorable

I think she's going to have them tonight or tomorrow but that's just my opinion. How many days is she 64?

Bigler_family · 03-21-2012, 08:54 PM

I not sure what a contraction looks like I just know she is very uncomfortable and keeps moving around in same area every few mintues

Bigler_family · 03-21-2012, 08:58 PM

She is 64 days
