Patiently Waiting!

I am patiently waiting for the puppies to arrive. Tomorrow is the 59th day which is the earliest day of a safe delivery. Wicked looks very content to just stretch out on her side and take frequent naps. Her eye are just a slightly glassy which means she is probably a little uncomfortable. The puppies dropped this week and are riding low in her abdomen instead of tucked up high with those cute baby bumps. She nibbles on her food throughout the day and is now getting yogurt as well. She seems very content and happy, but for those who know Wicked, she is the happiest girl in the world! Her little stub of a tail goes so fast, it reminds me of a hovering humming bird! Some people take the mother's temperature looking for that temperature drop 24 hours before delivery. We always watch for when they refuse to eat...that is always a clear sign around the expected day of delivery and puppies usually arrive later that day...I waited this morning to make sure Wicked ate before I left and she did.
