Stage 1 labour underway

It started about 2pm this afternoon (Sunday). Jess has been heavily panting and shivering since then (it's now 11pm). She's also having bouts of shredding all the newspaper in he whelping box into confetti !  Poor thing, it does not look comfortable.  Right now I'm just waiting for Stage 2 to start. According to the book of the bitch, Stage 1 labour (especially in first time mums) can last up to 18 hours - certainly hope not !  The average is 6 to 12 hours.

Watch this space :)
