Discomfort and Power Sleeping

Everything is progressing as it should.  About every thirty minutes I do some nesting and move around a little, and then sleep.  David is getting me outside every 2 - 3 hours for a bathroom break --- I do my business, and then head immediately back to the door to get to my chosen nest. 

The pack leader is going to try to get some sleep between my nesting activity.  Next report will be first thing in the morning, or when the puppies arrrive, whichever comes first.

Hanging Out in the Pack Leader's Bedroom Closet

Moved in about 45 minutes ago and am doing a little redecorating --- a little bit of paper here, a little bit of old clothing there.  I'm still sleeping most of the time.  If it is like last time, I'm about 12 hours away from starting labor.  Could be a long night ahead of us.

Hmmmm

I'm not very hungry this morning and my temperature has dropped by 0.5 degrees.  Haven't felt compelled to start a nest yet, but I have been checking out locations - I know I'm going to end up in the puppy room but you need to have a back-up just in case.

Day 60

Only a short update (need to eat and get my sleep).

My temperature is holding steady but I think the puppies are beginning to drop a little.  Was out for a good walk this evening. 

Pack leader is now home for the duration.  Tomorrow night we run Silken and Faolin up to Gayla's place.  They are going to be visiting with Gayla until the puppies are a couple of days old.

Haven't started a nest yet but I can throw that together in a matter of minutes.

Still thinking that June 20th (Father Trim's Day) will be the day.
