 I ran progesterone testing on Molly and Faith with their last heat cycles, and was able to narrow down ovulation date pretty closely.  Based on the date of ovulation, I was able to predict their due dates.  For Molly, I had predicted that she would be due on May 23.  She had half her pups on May 22, and the other half on May 23.  Pretty close to the dates I had estimated!  Well, Faith was bred about two weeks after Molly, and her predicted whelping date was June 4.  I was quite worried being that Faith was pregnant with only one...for the second time!  The problem with having a litter of one is that that ONE can be HUGE!  Faith is smaller than Molly too.  But, she free whelped her first puppy (Chai) without a hiccup, so I was optimistic about this one.  My worry though, was that she would be a day early and go into labour on Sunday the 3rd, when my vets would not be available.  I have complete trust in the vets at the CARE centre, but of course the vets I work with on a daily basis are the ones I trust the most. 

Anyhow, Faith went into labour on June 3 at about 6 pm.  panting, restless, nesting.  All the signs of imminent whelping.  She was digging in my sheets until 1 am and would not settle down.  I was hoping she would just relax and sleep through the night!  She was going to destroy my bed, so I took her downstairs to the whelping pen and layed beside her on the couch.  She instead choose one of the dog beds and settled down for a nice sleep.  At least SHE slept, but I didnt.  I was too worried, but she rested for the entire night and did not start acting restless again until morning.  We woke up at 8 am.  I felt MUCH better knowing my vets would be available if I needed them.  Well, at 1:54 pm, she delivered a sweet little girl!  Bigger than any of Molly's puppies were at birth, but only by a hair.  So, I am happy and proud to announce that we now have 2 girls out of the 7 babies.  I am hoping Faith will be able to help Molly with her puppies if the demand gets too much.  Things are going to be busy around here this summer!

Girls should discover more about ovulation signs via earlier age range, that's why we have to supply them the likelihood to get entry to this info from countless resources. On the following website you can read all about the ovulation signs and symptoms and just how they reveal.
