Taday, I purchased a new thermometer.  The one that came with my whelping kit said it registered in 60 seconds.... which I thought was long.... but it really took a few minutes... 5 if I used the crook of my arm... and it didn't ring.  For $15 I bought a new one at Rite Aid that registers in 8 seconds and beeps when it is done.  I think Lilly will appreciate the difference.  I know I would if I were her.

I also got my heating pad and found a nice, clean storage box in the basement to make my puppy warming box with.  I will look for every available non matching towel and baby blanket I have to make a good collection of clean cloths to line it with.  If all goes well, I may not need to use it at all.  But I know it is there if Lilly gets up and thrashes about in labor after a puppy or so has already been born and I need to move them out of her way for their own safty.

Her temp was just under 100 today... but because I don't trust the thermometer I had, I will try again tonight before we all settle in.
