On day 70 from first tie, any pups conceived on that tie are mature and continuing to grow! Day 70 from first tie will be day 67 from last tie...any pups conceived on that tie or within 48 hours of that tie, will be full term and able to survive with no problems.

After the vet check today.. She said she don't doubt poppy 'should' be fine to whelp naturally. Obviously any problems can happen at any time. Hopefully she'll give birth naturally on her own soon.. Before 70 days too! Really don't want her to have a section!

We never do...but they are not elective surgery most of the time! She can whelp naturally, with induction, if it will help her get things started, because every day the babies hang around in mom, they are growing in size...let momma go too long without help if needed to get her started, and you end up with a necessary section! Hoping something happens for you soon!

Yes I will do. It just feels like she's never going to go into labour. She's showing no signs what so ever. A few times I've thought 'ok, maybe this is it' but nope.. She was tricking me! She's very calm, sleepy, eating little but often, completely normal in herself. Pups are still moving, can hear the heartbeats. Just wish I knew WHEN it was going to start! Haha

Honestly, your pup needs to be fed on her tummy, not on her back.
