We have a PUPPY!!!
Maggie had her puppy at 12:45pm today. Wow.
I'm a little shaky right now because this birth took everything Maggie and I had, we literally birthed this BOY together. CHOCOLATE BOY, that is!!!
AND he's 1 lb 6.4 oz...
That's actually bigger than two of Rosie's 5 day old puppies! Wow.
AND he was born with the sac already broken, so when his face presented and his tongue was sticking out...I freaked! Well, not really, but my heart flipped and I realized this wasn't going to be textbook! I touched his tongue and he stuck it back in his mouth, so I knew he was alright.
His whole face was out, but Maggie stopped pushing, so I grabbed the Vaseline and slathered him up and with the next contraction I pulled and Maggie pushed. He was out in 2 more pushes.
I'm so relieved and grateful. I will take a pic soon!
:)
Wow, good job Kelly. I was a Labor and Delivery nurse, for humans, for 7 years. I know about unexpected and scary moments. Good job keeping your head. Give Maggie a pat on the head and a "Atta Girl".
