Thursday, October 26, 2017 at 1:45PM Temps are now 98.6. They are on their way up. This is what it is supposed to do. Still hopeful for today but it could be in the wee hours tomorrow on Spicy's birthday. heh

Yes, she is at 97.9 - a true drop. She kept me up off and on all last night. She is nesting but at the moment she is sleeping. I am glad if it happens during the day today as most likely Nathan will have to go to the vets with Saffron's pups tomorrow by himself. I told him he must take photos. It will be my first time of ever missing an 8 week visit. <sigh>
When will pups come after a drop? They say within 24 hours.
I will be washing saffron's pups this morning otherwise they won't get done or maybe she will have pups just because I am washing - midstream. Murphy's law!
Will start washing right after Clarity and Farley arrive. :-)
Oh and Adele looks like this as she has not been combed and she had to have her back end clean - which happens before birth. She also stopped eating last night though she ate so much before last night it will probably sustain her for another 24 hours easily. heh
This is Adele after my combout this morning. I just shaved her down again, combed her out but I have not put the sides of her hair up yet.
Here is Adele nesting. She is now nesting everywhere.
Darlah
Well at 11:54am it is still sitting at 97.7. waiting for the rise. will take in a couple of more hours. She will love me so - NOT!

Temps this morning are 99.2. She is going to make sure I can't get to the vets with safi's pups and nathan will end up going alone. <sigh>
I am so trashed that I forgot to put the coffee maker on and when I did forgot to put the grounds in so water went all over the counter.
Got a dog to demat for someone today. Not up for it but I said we shall see what we can do. Gad help me.

This was Adele as a puppy. She kept us going as a puppy and as an adult. heh She continues that theme. Temps were 100 even this morning. She panted half the night. This is the 3rd night of hardly any sleep. I have cancelled groomings and here she says hahahaha.
I will be taking a nap today as I need one badly.
She is driving me CRAZY!
She now weighs 16.8lbs

This was Adele with earlier pups. Her temperature this morning is 99.0 It is going down. Does this mean tomorrow? We will see if it continues to go down. It must go down to the low 98s to announce an impending birth.
Sunday, October 22, 2017 at 9:54AM Temps are 99.7. Below is a photo of Adele as a puppy.
Throughout her life Adele goes lighter and darker in coat colour. As you can see in her calendar it is anytime now.

This photo was taken a week ago. I need to take another. Her temps are 99.4. We are looking for 98.0 or very low 98s. Her weight today is 15lbs 10oz up from 15lbs 2oz

We are not there yet but we have her area set up. Now to make it warm and cozy, add the supplies etc. I also had to order a new xpen for Jeannie.
Adele got right in and made it her own. No pups today. No signs of labour. :-)
