Ahh my very much planned litter is due tomorrow! Bitches temp has been 99.8 - 100 for the last week and dropped to 98.6 today is this the drop!! She has kept me up the last three nights being uncomfy and panting! Last night she slept all night!!

From what I have read[no success with it myself] it could still drop, only when it starts going back up do you know it has bottomed out.

Back up to 100 now!!

This site explains the temperature drop well and what you're looking for:

Even got it in old money :-O

Without converting (I'll leave you to do that!) I find when my girls drop into the 36sC then that's an indicator they'll whelp within 24 hours. But, it drops for a short time before rising again, so you may well miss it! Good luck ... puppy watching much more exciting than Christmas :-D

iv had 1 girl drop to 33 before!.

:-O :-O !

Are you sure, that would be hypothermic in humans and dogs run on hotter blood than us.
