Well, what a roller coaster 30 hours!!! Leia went into labor and was doing it hard. We got her into our vet, after an unsuccessful labor and no puppies. He did a cesarean (Which 99% of this Breed have) During our xray the vet saw 5 and we were counting on 5. To my surprise, there were 8!!! Two of them, unfortunately, died. The first one was a hydrocephalos baby and was 3x the size of her brothers and sisters. The second one, we were going to keep. She was a female and ALL WHITE!! We didn't think we would get one, but we did. Unfortunately, she ingested too much amniotic fluid in her lungs, and passed away. We now have 6 (after not knowing if we would have ANY!). We have 4 girls and 2 boys! It was hard loosing our babies. Now they are crying under the lamp and I will go tend to them. I will post picts at a week old, to make sure they are healthy. So.......to our new babies, new mommy, and 2 hour nursing shifts, lol!
