| Taking Temps... How many days before the due date do you start taking temps, if you do? And, what time of day do you do that?

| I also wondered about the ear temp. one. I won't use the ones for children on my children because they aren't accurate. So I figured the same for the dog ones.

| An internal rectal temp is always most accurate, especially when your watching for the sensitivity of a decrease in temp. ITs hard to get a ear probe deep enough in a Yorkies ear, (at least mine) without them squirming away. There's just not much room for error with a R temp.
