ten past three on the morning of the 5th, got 4 pups, all very noisy and all very wriggly. Think that's it now as last one born an hour ago but did have an hour between two of them so will hang on a bit.
All look ok and amazing how quick they go for a teat.
I think both Skip and I are worn out. She went into 1st stage labour yesterday morning at 6AM so didn't get her normal sleeps during the day.
Would like to get her to come out of the whelping box so I can put some dry bedding in before I try to get some sleep but don't want to disturb her and the little 'uns.
Had 1 placenta for each pup. very easy to recognise and each was either with the pup or very soon after.
Who told me to nip the cord between finger nails so that it was like the bitch chewing it? Thank you for the tip, I had to do that.
Pics as soon as I can. Promise.
Yours,
one very
owner.
