    the amount of times I've gotten my hopes up over a bowel movement is just silly

    It seems that they hold their tails straight up when it's a question of bowel movement, but only arch it a little when they give birth. (personal observation)

    Great observation.
    Of all the times I've seen both, I never saw the difference. Now I will.

    I still want to emphasize that it's just a personal observation. It's not a rule, to my knowledge.

    Re: Waiting

    I seem to recall them holding it straight up but after some time in labor she gets tired of holding it up I guess and it just sort of arches. Still, every birthing I witnessed was preceeded by obvious muscle spasms before the first one comes out. You'll know it's not a bowel movement about to happen.
