Joan of Arc Posted June 14, 2010 Share Posted June 14, 2010 Monteba I have no clues or advice to offer you except to tell you that we are sorry you have lost another little baby and we hope and pray for the rest of your babies. RIP Beautiful boy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chocolate Posted June 14, 2010 Share Posted June 14, 2010 So sorry for your losses Monteba. It is so sad losing babies one after the other. My only suggestions are to ensure they are warm so that they are able to digest their mothers milk and speak with your vet in case they can pinpoint why this might be happening.

Joan of Arc Posted June 15, 2010 Share Posted June 15, 2010 Sorry guys, no wigglebum news yet - she is the most stubborn of princesses. I can tell you that if you let her out the door without a lead on she makes a beline for the kennel adn when you call her out of the kennel to take her for a wee, she tries to hide under the fir tree in the garden. So I have put the 'drapes' around the whelping box and made it more a 'den'. Being a maiden I have no guide on her real behaviour, for two days her temp has been hovering around 37.4, last night and again this morning it was 37.1 so it is going down. Just took her temp again and its still 37.1. I have been at work all day and OH has been here to midwife - she has done a small amount of nesting - just scratched up a couple of sheets of paper - and has a slight dark discharge. Have been giving her three smaller meals instead of two for the last couple of days - she just had her second meal and ate the meat but left the biscuits. She usually shovels the food in. But there is some panting and that continuous 'looking back', so perhaps slight contractions have started. But she is still wiggly and happy so who knows.

shellbyville Posted June 15, 2010 Share Posted June 15, 2010 Mercedes, sounds like it won't be too long till she starts. Good luck, can't wait to hear. One of my girls, ate all her dinner just before she began whelping and she was also quite normal and happy right up to the start of labour. So they are all different and you just don't know with a maiden bitch. Hope all goes really well for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
