Day 57 – The final countdown
We have now entered the Final Countdown… Less than one week to go before they arrive. As you can see, she’s HUGE! She’s very uncomfortable and has a hard time laying anywhere but the floor. When she’s lying there, you can clearly see all the movement going on inside her. Resting my hand on her side gets pokes within a few seconds. I was able to get some video this week but today was the best day so far. It’s so cool to see and feel.
Tomorrow is x-ray day! I’m pretty sure that I’ll be posting a pic of the xray with the count before I’ve even left the vet office, so if you’re as excited as I am, you can check Facebook at about 3:00 for the news. Otherwise, I’ll be blogging here when I get home. I’m so excited to know how many there are so I can finish up final preparations this week. I will begin taking her temperature 2x a day and looking for a drop in temp as a sign of the beginnings of labor.
If for some reason, I don’t get to post next by next Thursday (babies come early), be sure to check my Facebook page. I will be posting all the details during the whelping there via my trusty iPhone.
For those who are NOT on Facebook, you can still check out the page for details. Since my Blue River Weimaraners page is public anyone can see it, even if you’re not a FB user. You can find me by clicking the blue F just below the Counter on the right side of the screen or by clicking HERE.
Below is a slideshow of the pregnancy from beginning to today:
Ok, well I’m off to bed!
