Re: My Bitch Is Late

Im glad your vet found her to be fine.

How many times was she mated? as this may effect her due date, her eggs may have been fertilised a day or more after the mating. Also the sperm can remain active for up to several days which could be a factor.

Have you been taking her temp? Normal temp is between 101 and 102.5 Fahrenheit , there is usually a drop in temperature (below 100 f) 24 hrs before she whelps. Usually quite a reliable indication.

Im sure she will go soon..got my fingers crossed for you!
