It's less than 12 hours. Pups are lively. They are holding weight or very slightly losing - .01grams which is normal. They may eat before you weigh or eliminate which affects so we don't take weight serious for a day or so unless there is more than a minimal loss. Mom does have milk. Pups are eating. They are lively and there were no complications during delivery.
After mom delivers, I wash her back end and then dry her. She won't get a bath till the pups are 2 to 3 weeks. She will get groomed daily. I will use waterless shampoo but mom, at this stage can't be away from the pups for as long as it would take to do a full bath. So a full bath waits.
Saffron is happy and tired. She is confident that pups are doing well as she leaves the xpen to go outside to do her duties and to eat and drink. They are sleeping in-between feedings. These are all signs that pups are doing well.
Be sure to check out the videos.
UPDATE 230PM - all pups are gaining. This is under 1 day old. They are rather funny. They make noises till she lets down the milk. I even hear them smacking their lips. Such characters.
