Confusion!

Give her a sponge bath...LOL

My vet told me that if she ate all the placentas , don't be worry about the fact that she is not eating now . She have been fed with them , she'll return to eat when she have rested .

Ya know, that makes sense. Originally I wasn't gonna let her eat them but then I read that it actually helps the babies and her to bond, andit also helps produce milk.

Im so proud of my little girl. She did an outstanding job!

Now my problem is...im not sure how to thank everyone here on YT for staying up with me and walking me through this. Mark my words though, I will find a way.

I did a search on the net and found this: You may give the mom a bath shortly after whelping if she is too messy. Or you can wait until she has rested a few hours and bathe her the next day.

Course, you can't believe everything you read on the net, but she seemed to be an experienced breeder!

True true but I cant see the harm in it. It's been 7 1/2 hours since the last pup was born so she's been resting up. I'll probably clean her off before I take her for a check up today.

Thanks again! Im gonna go get her in the tub, and then clean myself. I reak of rubbing alcohol and im covered in iodine lol

So far so good. They are little piggies though lol. And I can tell who's the dominant one already. The first pup born lol. He drains one boob then moves to the next while pushing the others away lol. I think he's gonna be fairly big. It's amazing what a difference an ounce can make.

Im cleaning up a bit now so I can head to the vet. She wants to check them out and Angel too.

Im not even gonna shower todya. Im so tired and so blah feeling that I dont even have energy. It took all I had just to braid my hair lol. So, I think it's a sweats pants kinda day lol.

I'll be back later today to tell you all what the vet says. Thanks again and see you all soon!

congrats!! I just read this post and i was on the edge of my seat! hope things are still well.

Wow, I have been following your story and just now had a chance to check my computer today. Congratulations! How did the vet check go? Your story and the help you received during this birth has definitely shown me that the people here are great. I have never had a dog that had puppies so I would definitely have been freaking out. I am so happy for you and your new puppies and of course Angel.

[ranedrops]

Oh my gosh, my heart was in my stomach reading your posts. I am so glad everything turned out well.

Congratulations on your pups!

[CC's]

I'm glad all is well there. Get lots of puppy kisses and a few hours sleep when you can.

[mojo]

I am sooo glad everything turned out well for you and your babies!!!
Are you naming them?
Post pics when you can.

Congratulations.

[Itspuppyluv]

Congratulations. They sound adorable. Good job Angel! (and you)
I was anxious reading the posts and waiting so I can't even imagine how you felt.

[iheartyorkies]

Way to go Heather and Angel. I'm glad it's over for both of you. Good job. And good job to everyone who was here talking Heather thru it all. Heather I hope you've found a way to get some rest today. Congrats on three new Yorkie babies!!!

[HeatherHamptons]

Hey everyone,
Thanks for all your support and kind words. I don't think I would have made it through this ordeal without you all.

Angel and the puppies are doing great. They are feeding off of her like they should. She's wonderful with them.

I took them to the vet yesterday and everything looks great. Apparently she did pass that last placenta, I just didn't see it happen. The puppies all look good as well too. They didn't get a full exam, just a quick one to let me know how they are doing.

They are gonna get their tails docked and dew claws removed on Monday. They said they couldn't do it yesterday because it was to soon.

Angel didn't want her food yesterday (other then one bite) so I gave her some plain yogurt before bed. I hear that was good for them. She REALLY liked that! lol This morning she dug into her puppy food which is good.

Everything is getting back to normal, other then the fact that she doesn't want Prince around. I tried taking him in the closet (where her and the pups are) and at first she put her nose up to him, but then she growled. It kinda scared him but it appears that he really wants to see the babies.

Im not sure how long I can keep them all apart. He stays up for hours at night (And all day) barking because he can't be where she is. Im not sure how I am gonna be able to get Prince around her and the pups without her growling at him.
