Still waiting

So the way this works is you can count gestation from the first breeding or the last. Fern's last litter she went almost 63 days exactly from the first breeding. We assumed she would be the same as last time. Well we are now way past 63 days from the first breeding but from the last breeding it could be all the way into this weekend. About two weeks ago Scott an I were commenting that she didn't seem that big and that maybe she didn't have as many puppies as last time. Well it's two weeks later and I'm not sure she could get much bigger. She is behind our schedule for her ;) but right on her own schedule. I need to practice my patients, the puppies will come when they are ready but MAN I've been ready for a whole week. I watch and feel the puppies dancing around inside her. I like to do this to reassure myself they are okay in there. Fern is in surprisingly good spirits and other then her breathing being a little shallow from lack of space inside there, she is doing well. I took her temp on thursday and it was just below 100 degrees, which is supposed to indicate when labor is going to start ( anything below 100). I am not sure if my thermometer is broke but its been down below 200 for a week.
I'll will let you all know as soon as REAL action starts.
