Well, my hunches were right when I had worries about this mom. Her cervix was tight as could be even with a baby in the canal. Too little to deliver ... probably too young as well ... so she had an emergency C-section. Thank GOD that all SIX babies survived and they are doing great! Miss Smokey is resting from all the drugs now and she was SPAYED during the C-section! So... no worries there!My vet said that this confirms that I SHOULD have takent this mom in or she likely would have labored and died outside somewhere. If I was ever unsure about my decision, this one has made me certain that these little moms do need labor coaches!
Thank you so much again to the ones who have donated to the pregnant mom fund because the services for today's visit with this mom today totalled $369.35.
Now, I am going to get mom and babies comfortable and I'm crashing! ZZZZZZZZZZ.

I'm so glad that you were with her and that you called the vet so he could help her have her babies. I'm also glad to hear that mama and babies are doing well and I hope that they all continue to thrive.
Please update us again when you can. I know that you now need your rest.
