X-RAY DAY

WOOHOO we have eight for sure maybe nine babies!

Riva was so good for her x-ray, she didn’t want to go with the tech through the inner exam room door, because you know when they take you to the back things happen to you! The tech was so nice with her and said okay lets go this way (out the door we came in) which Riva willingly went with her then, I had to laugh because I heard the tech say to her “yea I fooled you”.

When I went to the back to have Dr. Schultz show me the x-ray he said “we have babies all over the place” I have to tell you I panicked just a little thinking he was going to tell me there was a dozen in there. He was very thorough and showed me each puppy; then he measured Riva’s pelvis and then measured a puppy skull to compare the size and said she should have no problem delivering. He said everything looks good!

Here are the very first pictures of her babies, how many can you see?

 

I can not wait to see these babies and hold them, oh and the smell of puppy breath, ahhhhh

Day 40

Well it is now day 40 and I do believe she is pregnant. Things are starting to change with her body that are good indications of pregnancy. I called and scheduled her x-ray with a reproduction specialist, Dr. Schultz, for September 12, at 1:30pm; that will be day 54. Hoping he sees some babies in there!

Now a little tattle on Riva, yesterday we had a fair well dinner at church for one of the families that is moving away; when we do this everyone brings a dish to pass so I brought my Sloppy Joes and Oatmeal Butterscotch Bar Cookies. There were probably about a half batch of the cookies left that I brought back home, which equates to about 2 dozen give or take, well my little counter surfer decided she needed some cookies and tore through the saran wrap and ate not one or two but the entire thing! Needless to say she wasn’t hungry for dinner and thankfully it did not make her sick. I hope she doesn’t pass her counter surfing gene on to her offspring
