Breny

Got your flashlight out yet?............lol
Have you looked at her vagnal area yet close?

Congrats Breny!! It's good that she's resting in between. She can do this for hours. The digging is her way of working out the labor pains. When her tail stiffens and she's seriously bearing down is the time to get ready. This has been my experience as a general rule, but just look for a sac or her water breaking. If this is her first litter, she could go quite awhile. Try to stay calm. (easier said than done..lol) And good luck! Can't wait for an update.

This is her first litter. Contractions are 12:30, 12:35, and 12:42
Nothing at the vulva yet

OMG this is so exciting. I feel like I'm right there, just refreshing the page a lot. Debbie (Dray) had her litter at 3am, 2 girls and 1 boy. Yay I can't wait to hear about the pups

There can always be problems with labor.
BUt everything sounds good right now. THe waiting is torture though. Seems like eternity.

Breny · 12-21-2006, 10:03 AM

Is it normal that each contraction brings on serveral short pushes

luvdorkyyorkies · 12-21-2006, 10:09 AM

HOw long now has your girl been in labor?

DOes she have a time lapse between the contractions you are talking about? A break from contractions at all? Or are they constant like she is trying to poop and cant and walks without rest?

No sak yet and no big bearing down, although I can tell when they hurt, poor baby.

I noticed her panting around 11ish. There are breaks in the contractions...like every 5 -7 minutes then she will contract (give small pushes) for about 5 minutes. She's just laying down between

Breny · 12-21-2006, 10:12 AM

The pushes are not constant

feminvstr · 12-21-2006, 10:12 AM

if you dont see a pup or sak within the next half hour with the contractions being 5 mins apart...I would take her in, its been about an hour so far right? if my memory is correct, this is a singleton right? it may be too large for her to push it through and could be stalled at the bone. Its always best to be safe for both the pup and mom than sorry!

SHe should be coming into hard labor now. Is she very restless?

Breny · 12-21-2006, 10:29 AM

Shes digging and pulling blankets with her teeth. We have a clear slimy discharge...I walked out of the room to use the bathroom and when I returned she greeted me at the door running around. She's back to digging and biting the blankets
