Thank you Charlotte, We think so too!
My goodness, I thought 5.4 was big ...but 6.4? Ouch! LOL
You know, I could've sworn last night that she was walking already. Ha!

Here are the other 5.

Again Char....congratulations on your little ones. I love looking at the little puppies on this thread. Our gang is so big now. We are having so much fun with them. They started to play with small toys now.....I just stared and cried. They are growing so fast!! Enjoy yours!!

These 5 puppies are some boot scootin' boogers!

They are all over the place and using their legs like crazy.

Hi just got back from the vet, this time he said 3 possibly 4???. She is day 56 I thought they should be able to tell EXACTLY how many. The first xray showed 2 possibly 3. I guess it depends how how up to date their equipment is, etc. The best news is that her pelvis seems large enough to have the puppies without difficulty

WIll keep everyone updated on the puppies.

Here is a recent belly shot of my big girl

char7 · 08-13-2007, 06:40 PM

It's hard to tell exactly, especially if there are alot of them. They can also be hidden behind organs where the xray doesn't pick them up.

Also, you're right about the up to date equipment. Not only that tho, if they over expose or under expose the xrays, you miss puppies.

Good luck!! Keep us updated!

UMMM, after seeing this picture, I would be guessing more than 3 puppies.

How much did she weigh before becoming pregnant and how much does she weigh now?

Bmrchick · 08-13-2007, 07:32 PM

She was always a little cubby so I think about 8 or 9lbs. Now she weighs 11

Stormy had 6 puppies and she gained just a little over 2 lbs.

Your girl sure looks like she is full of puppies

I can't wait to find out how many she has.

I would agree with Char, she looks pretty big.

Perhaps you will have a bunch of those precious babies running around soon. Wouldn't that be wonderful!
I can't wait to see them.
Please keep us posted !!!

Sounds like your fears are coming out in your dreams. Both of you will do just fine. Try to stay calm for her sake. I know that's easier said than done because we all go thru that when puppies are on the way.

Yikes! I didn't know they screamed! I thought the only noise they made was panting and grunting. My daughter asked me if Twinkles will scream and I told her no.... Now she probably won't help me..... I will be screaming along with her if she does. I think I am reading too much. Her temp is going up and down, she won't go near the whelping box. When I put her in it - even when I put the x-pen around it she gets out and lies down on her pee pad. Then she cries when no one is in the room. After about an hour, I gave up and let her out. I don't want her to be upset.

I'd have the babies for her if I could. I had 3 kids by natural childbuirth (there was no epidural when my kids were born). How do you teach a Yorkie Lamaze breathing?

LOL! Lamaze! I wish

Maybe the panting is Lamaze

The screaming only lasted for a little while and she's the only one that I have ever had do that. She never did the panting or grunting. It was more like the first part of dialating, she was hollering, and then after that, she stopped hollering and went to pushing. Just try to comfort her. You'll both do fine.

As far as the whelping box, she may not want to have her babies in there. Mine usually have their first one on the floor with sheets and blankets with me and then I move them to the whelping box and they stay there and have the rest. When they're pregnant, they want alot of attention and don't want to be left alone.

Good Luck!! Let us know when it looks like it's time.

Here is my little (?) girl doing her imitation of a pot-bellied pig. Tomorow is her due date, but no signs of anything yet.......

First picture she says "Just stick a pin in it - maybe it will just POP!"
Second picture "Just tie a ribbon on my tail, I feel like a helium balloon."
Third picture "You don't WANT to know what I'm thinking!"

It'll be exciting to see how many she's carrying. Looks like 6!!
