Rosie and her pups are doing great! She is a power nurser, those pups have 24/7 access to her and they love it! They are gaining between 2 to 3 ounces per day, which is a lot when you only weigh 1 pound. :) There are some more pics on my website for those of you that come here first...check it out, they are little angels! The vocal one right now is little Turquoise Girl. She makes all sorts of noises when she is nursing, but I know exactly when the milk has let down because all is silent then. Sweet!
Maggie is doing great also. She's started some nesting behavior, she hasn't eaten lately, and this morning we hit the magic number, 98.6, for her temp. I was supposed to take the puppies in for their dew claws this afternoon, but I'll have to postpone that until tomorrow. I want Maggie to feel safe and if I leave her labor could stall. I still keep hoping there are two puppies. I can't say "puppy" when I talk about it...always still say "puppies". I think we'll know soon.
So, thanks for sticking with me through this journey! I'll update later today with any news, of course. And remember...no news means no news! :)
