still no pups im waiting for vet to ring me back now,

she been nesting panting hard sleeping going into the zone as i call it! ive been checking her bits shes still very dry down there no plus lost no waters leaking today is 63 from ovulation should i give her longer to see what happens or do i ask for c-section ,ive never had a girl go this long in 1st stage to me it feels like 48h?
just wondered what your thoughts are on this ,this breed arent known for having a section and do whelp easy my other 2 have had no problems at all, my thoughts are if theres to many pup in her for her contrations to start? but surely id see her plug or somthing ,im not thinking very stright didnt get much sleep again she wanted me with her every so often ,shes licking everything walls floors doors me her feet and legs so i know shes in pain but id say more so over the last 24h shes been like this just panting and deep sleep for 48h , any1 eles had a girl go like this to give birth ok??????
hubby has just felt her bits and says their alittle wet now LOL god hope ppl dont think anything of that just rememberd that post about touching their dogs lol any advise plz that youve been tho xxx

good luck :)

Ohhhh..I thought we'd have pups this morning!!!
Hope all goes ok at the vets and that mum and pups are doing great.

Same here.  Thought pups would be here.

It might be day 63, so maybe she wants a few hours into it lol.

Hope all goes well at the vets and she's just keeping you guessing.  Have you tried a little walk with her, just round the garden to give them a shift on.

Goodness...can't believe she is still keeping you waiting, bless, you must all be so exhausted.

Good luck with the vets.

well she's got a fair few followers by the looks of it :) shame they dont do something for bitches like foaling alarms for horses :) enjoy your sleep x

Well I've heard car journeys can set things off if they get excited, so let's hope that's the case with your girl!

I don't know about anyone else but I'M going grey here!!

Good luck..sounds like it's gonna be a busy night for you xx

Calm down everyone she is only 63 days from ovulation so no need to panic just yet.  I am sure she will have them today or tomorrow.

just a very quick update her waters have gone she is contrating and just starting to push alittle so should have 1st pup soon xxx
keep up the thoughts for her to get this pup out asap so i know she can do it ,how long can she go now waters have broke before 1st pup is born im so tired i carnt think and thankfuly i have such good CD'ers to do that for me in my hour of need :) xxx

Fingers crossed it wont be long...
at least once shes had them you might be able to get your head down for a while...good luck:)

yaay.....!

Here's to a nice straightforward delivery.

Hooray, we're on the move at last. Funny how involved you can get with someone else's litter isn't it! :-D

Yes, but its great to know that we are always here to help and give support if only in words and thoughts.
Hope all is going for White Lily and her girl.

shouldve said hope all is going well!!

A daytime litter, how novel. lol.

Good luck with it all, at least you'll get some rest tonight.

She's a clever girl. xx

Just read all the posts and now that I'm all up-to-date and have missed the drama.....looking forward to hearing that the litter and mum are all doing well :-) good luck.

update....still no pups :( been on the phone to the vets again hes not worried at all at the mo
she is contrating but not alot with only small pushes shes fine in herslf and begging for a sweet right this min from my husband (jell babbies)
so looks like its going to be a night time litter and no more sleep but i dont care as long as these babbies are born safe and mum is ok ,if nothing by the morning we are takeing her for a c section im praying with everthing it dont come to that and she whelps very soon ,i feel sick with worry and excitment at the same time, carnt thankyou all enough for keeping me going and sane well just about!
hopefuly my next update will be pups are here she whelped very quickly once she got going
jo xxxx

Isn't this just the due date?  What's the panic to open her up?  Little contractions are just her getting them down the birth canal eh? :)

yes westcoast your right :) but her waters have gone? how long can she be like this before pups come? ive always had a pup within 1h of waters breaking i think this is my worry.

xxx

I wouldn't be panicking if she's having gentle contractions and is comfortable.  You just need to see the normal progression that you've seen before.

ok thankyou ill try and stop giving myself a nevus break down :(
xxx

Good luck Jo, my girl has been digging today and is losing little amounts of water shouldn't be too long now!!

the best of luck hun looks like we are both haveing no sleep tonight ,hope your girl dont keep you hanging on like madom here :) xxx

Dont Panic WL she will be fine just let her do it in her own time ....she is on time ..just seems like its been forever with the early slow labour.

Good Luck

Roni

yes your right roni ,im a nut case when its whelping time but im not like it around her shes doing great bless her we having more contration and little pushes deep sleep and she starts again ,i dont know why i worry myself half to death my hubby says i have to stop reading and worrying myself and just let her get on with it ,he right but im not telling him LOL
xxx

Good luck with your girl and pups White Lilly. Have been following this thread & hope all goes smoothly for you and her.

I had a much more experienced friend helping me with my last litter. We had my girl walking around in the garden once the pushing had started, and this helped her get the first one out quick smart. We just had to make sure someone caught the pup! We had 2 of them born outside, and I'm sure helped the whelping along no end. She whelped 7 in just 2 hours.

All the best, I hope we have some good news very soon....

Try not to worry, easier said than done i know.  Let the excitment take over instead.  Sounds like you're doing a good job.  i bet she won't be too long now for you.  You've got hours to go until its a nighttime job.

Got everything crossed for you both.  I'd try a little walk round if she'll do it.xx

boy just born :) my did fab xxxxxx

woo hoo - huge congrats Jo x

congratulations :-)
Paula xxx

Well done, she has caught you up at last - bet you have been clenching those stomach muscles so hard you will be constipated for a week.

lol @ nova.

Well done to you and your girl WL...soon be over and then the real fun starts;)

Woo hoo, a puppy at last! It feels like we've been waiting months, I can't imagine how you must feel! :-)

Congrats.

Will check back in a little while.  Tell her want all babies out by 8pm. lol.

Nice one Nova.

girl :) she hasnt deliverd the plcenters yet tho

goodie goodie will keep checking back because I know you have nothing better to do than update us !!

Any more yet Whitelilly?  I found it helped my girl if I wandered her out to the garden if things were slowing up.  Just make sure you take a torch as one of mine were born out there 5 minutes after just having producing a puppy!

wonder what is going on?? hope everything is ok WL ...

white lilly - is your girl ok?   Or has she finished, and you have just collapsed with exhaustion! 

I do hope that all is well for you.

hi we only have 6 at the mo and shes still very full :( pups coming every 2h :( but shes doing good ok now most have beein born out of sack and none have been deliver (after births) apart from 1 she got that and ate it ,she eating food inbetween having them and is doing great its me thats not lol ,will be back tomorrow night at this rate to say how many shes had i can still feel about 6 im sure and my god ther massive not 1 is small 3 of each at the mo

xxxxxxxxx

hubby has took mist to vets shes stopped and i can still feel pups shes sooo tired and has given up we have 7 at the mo 4girls 3 boys 2 of the girls it was touch and go but got them breathing my hole body is shakeing i feel like im on drugs 1/2 sleep in 2 days isnt good for anyone
:( so now im waiting for them to come back and see what the vets say im sure i could feel 4 but ive never been very good at counting them she is still big so just waiting for them to get back with oxitocin ,her last pup was 10 past 2 so not sure if these pups inside will be ok ???

Well done on getting those out already.  Hope the vet can sort the rest out without a section for her.

Don't how long they can go without the sac on inside, but don't worry, I'm sure they'll be as ok as those who came out without it.  Do you think they lost it at the last minute.  I wouldn't worry about the afterbirths just yet. (You can tell me all this when I'm there, lol.  When I'm in the same state).

Good luck with the rest of the whelping.  Sleep, well a nap is in sight.  Can anyone watch them for you when Mist is back whilst you have a catch up?

Nearly there. Hugs. xx
