I've been reading a lot. I feel I'm as ready as I can be. I'm sure I'll have some questions but I know everyone will help and I appreciate it. As much as ive been reading this will still be my first litter so I'm sure its gonna be stressful. But I'm ready and excited.

Great. A tub with a small amount of water and wet paper towels is needed. It helps hydrate the scrubs and assists them in their first shed and for some getting the umbilical cord off.

this is my first litter so im not positive.....its not the rule lol but from what ive read many will give birth after they shed... some go off eating for a little bit right before the give birth too. no rule... just common occurances... i think i got that out correctly... im sure someone else can tell you what i meant to write haha
