I immediately called the vet to ask what it could be. Vet said to observe if she tries to push the babies out which means she was in labor.
No sign of that.
I got giddy so I decided to take the afternoon off and left the office at noon.
One foot inside the house and I felt Cukay was wet. I asked for a paper towel and it came away green. I turned around and brought her to the hospital.
Ultrasound showed movement everywhere in her belly. A major struggle was going on in there. Cukay was not heaving. Xray then. It showed this:
One puppy was blocking the doorway to earth. It's body was bent from the others' trying to get out.
The doctors counted the days and interrogated me. We arrived at 57 days in gestation so she was ready to give birth. Green discharge was a danger sign (thanks, Tessa, for urging me to read about whelping!) so I gave the green light for a CS delivery.
I watched the babies come out. What a sight! I have a video but I'll not upload it as some people might find it objectionable. ;p
I have three baby boys and one baby girl. We lost one baby girl. She was the one that was blocking the way and she looked like Chikoy.
They all came home the same day... so, yes, I slept on the floor again.
