| I'm sorry I don't have any advice for you. But I am wishing you and your baby a safe delivery and some very healthy puppies.

| Lexie was about 6.5 pounds before she got pregnant with this litter. At the vet yesterday she was 11.2. She is such a trouper though. She still greeted the recetionist with her smile and kisses and tried to jump on the vet when he came into the room. (He told her she wasn't allowed to do that anymore!!) LOL about the record....I just want health! Thanks for your well wishes. I will keep you posted.

Because of your post, ( and I thank you for your concern) I have spent the last few hours researching eclampsia in canines. I have checked the food I am feeding Lexie and it's first ingredient is protein (23% and the recommended is 30%), but Lexie is eating 6 to 8 small meals a day. In all the articles I have read (both by breeders and vets) it says that you can over calcium the bitch and that is just as bad as having low calcuim. After all of that here is my question. Would you start giving Lexie (small amounts of cottage cheese and milk once a day? (I would watch her stool to make sure she does not get diarrhea) In another article I read that giving the bitch one "Tums" a day will also help. What do you think? With Yorkies being so small, maybe a half? It's after 1AM here in sunny Florida, so I will call the vet, and a breeder friend that I have for their option too, but I would like to know what you think. Do one, do both, don't do anything until and if she shows signs? I really do thank you for your post. Is there anything else I should watch for now , during whelping, or after the puppies are born? I do have vet, vet tech, and emergency hospital all "on call" for our big event. I just am praying we don't need them!! Thanks again!!

| Well just to tell you all what is going on today. The vet told us a week ago to keep Lexie quiet, don't let her jump, run around..basicly keep her on bed rest. Well today I had to go out for a little this AM and I put Lex in her crate in our bedroom with food and water. When I returned she was so excited to get out of the crate, had eaten and she ran to be with Davie and Harley that were on the porch. They all ran...yes Lex ran outside and caught the first lizard that was not fast enough to get out of her way. She was faster than the other two. She continues to have a wonderful attitude and loving desposition. I am so luck to have her!!

| I wish you the best of luck on your upcoming litter. My Misha is due the 19th also. She is only having 3. I posted her X-rays on another post. This is our first litter so I'm very excited. Maybe we'll be whelping together-miles apart. |

| I just want all of you to know that Lexie is one of the luckiest yorkies in the world because Charlene is her mom. How do I know this? My baby Brissy is one of the six that Lexie had her last litter. I got to know Charlene very well through our experience and continue to have a wonderful relationship with her. Lexie's and her babies are in excellent and loving hands. |

| Oh Les, thank you. We do love our babies don't we?? I can not thank you enough for offering help when Lexie goes into labor. Besides your knowledge, the caring, loving you will be a calming effect on all of us. Keep your phone handy, and I will call at first sign!! I hope for both of our sakes it is a good time of day!!
