| So last night her temp was 100.6 around 9pm...around 11 I took it again just to see if it had changed and it went up to 101.6. This morning it was at 100.0 on the dot. I called the vet to let them know and I'm just waiting on a call back from the doctor at this point...she's acting perfectly find otherwise. No colored discharge, no smells, I've noticed her poops getting softer and softer and this morning she completely refused to take her vitamin. Only drinking water and staring at me lol. |

| Temp. Doesn't always work. As long as she's fine and not stressed and puppies are moving just sit back and relax she'll have them when she's ready she might not have taken the first tie. That mucous you mentioned before was her plug so the puppies could come anywhere from a day to a week and a half after they shed it. As someone who has close to 10 years experience breeding I understand that is nerve racking but it's a waiting game. It sounds like she's close if her stools are softening and she doesn't want to eat anymore. If you kinda ignore her while she's in her box instead of watching her and fussing over her it could help her stay close by so you can hear her see but what she's doing but don't solely focus on her. |

| Thanks for the update, poor lil momma, and you must be on pins and needles. Hoping by now you have heard back from your vet.

| Haha I'm so stressed and lacking sleep also because I keep waking up to check on her. I did just hear back from the vet..they want me to bring her in to give her a check and see so I'll be going in after lunch at work today. Hopefully they can feel if there's anything moving in there. They also gave me the option of waiting another day to see. Should I just wait it out? She's acting totally normal. |

| Shes definitely showing some signs of pre-labor now. Staring at me and barely wanting to eat. She also was kind of moving like with her breaths...she was sitting staring at me and kinda bobbing her head with each breath as if it was labored. Anyway, I'm going to take her into the vet so he can just examine her and make sure the puppies are where they should be. I don't think another x-ray will be necessary at this point. |

| Great that you're taking her to the vet, the vet should be able to see / feel if the puppies are in the right position for delivery. Praying that sweet momma has those babies today.

| Good news! The vet says he can feel all 4 puppies at the top of the birth canal so they are in the spot where they should be. He said anywhere from 3-4 days from now she should go into labor and that everything looks and feels great. He has no worries about her. He told me to keep taking her temperature and to watch for any signs of green colored discharge. They also gave me some wet puppy food to feed her along with her dry food since she was a bit uninterested in it. The only bad thing is now I have more time to wait! Lol! I didn't want to wait anymore but I don't mind as long as they're healthy puppies! I can't wait! |

| Yeah I'm not thrilled but he said she should be fine so I should relax and enjoy these last couple of days with her belly. It's the last one! Lol |

| I think her water just broke or she just lost her mucus plug!!! The vet told me to look for a dark green discharge. She had a bunch of fluid all over her earlier that dried and I just checked her bed in her whelping box and there's a dark green stain! It might be a little graphic but I'll be attaching pictures. I just took her temp as well and it's at 99.7!!! Hopefully we'll have puppies by tomorrow night!!!! http://i68.tinypic.com/9t07dh.jpg http://i67.tinypic.com/o0c4tc.jpg |
