Thats a fabulous video!! Is her pelvis open at all? Looks like it could be within the week for her with that amount of movement!

Thankyou! I have no idea about the pelvis, she doesnt like her back, tummy etc being touched at all. She flinches! She will only let me touch her face and head. Which is a shame as i would love to feel that movement! Dont want to stress her out though.

Is it true that the babies go quiet for a few days before being born?

Yes they do, as they position themselves to be born.

Still no babies! I wouldve betted that today was the day as yesterday movement was sill there, but less manic! Same this morning. As it was such a lovely morning i let her out for a few minutes whilst i cleaned her 'toileting corner' and took a photo! One side is a lot bigger than the other, but i think theres movement on both. Hopefully the last before the baby photos!

Theres 3 - so far. She may have finished. Babies look well cleaned so i think thats it. Missed it all and dont want to disturb her too much. Will update asap.

Hi. I think i have 2 girls and a boy! The 2 in the pic with mum are girls and in the other pic, the one behind is the boy. I will check again in a few days and post pics to be sure as they get bigger. I think however, that they might be losing weight. What is the best thing to do? Ive seen them drink from mum and eating grass and cucumber, but i think they are all losing weight.

Its natural for all pups to loose weight before they gain again. Keep an eye on it. If they are eating thats good. Make sure theres plenty for them to munch on.

Thanks kayleigh. The smallest one is i think 47g though, he was very wriggly so im not 100%. Im thinking maybe putting some diluted evaporated milk soaked in bread in so they can have a munch? Ive upped mums greens too. She gets a lot anyway, but thought it wouldnt hurt as the babies might eat it if she doesnt. Planning on weighing again tomorrow or is that too soon?

Ooh 47g is very small. I would add evap milk soaked in bread or you can put a bottle on the cage. Keep the greens, kale, spring greens and spinach are all super good. My pups were munching on these at 24 hours old.
Keep a close eye on the smallests weight. I would weight then every 2 days until a week or so old.

That pink nose is so cute. And the eye patch reminds me of Bowie's Ziggy Stardust.
Gorgeous little pups.
