It deffo would of given me a fright, deffo after having babys aswell, because we have the babys to look out for aswell as mum now.
Noone can tell me that with their first litter there was'nt one thing involved that did'nt give them a fright at some point.
Iwas with my babys morning noon and night due to the fact i hand reared but i still would watch their breathing and stuff like that lol.
Even tho i read and was given all good advice i was still panic stricken the first time round
