Sally,

I just went through this. On Wednesday, day 57, my bitch's temp dropped to
98.6.  She vomited bile and wouldn't eat.  The next day, it dropped to 97.9
at 1:00 in the afternoon.  At 9:00 p.m. it spiked to 100.4.  The next
morning, yesterday, I let her out to pee.  When she came in, she was
dripping green discharge.  I rushed her to the vets for an emergency
C-section.  She had two dead puppies.  One had been dead several days (the
first day her temp dropped, the other had been dead less than 24 hours (the
second drop to 97.9).  She had NO signs of labor.  No panting, no nesting,
nothing.  I read in one of my books that when the temperature drops and then
spikes up, there is a dead puppy.

The vet said the third puppy was starting to detach and if she didn't have
the c-section when she did, we would have lost it, too.

Yesterday was not a good day. I'm a lot broker after the vet bill!  We did
have four beautiful puppies:  one solid black female, black& tan female, and
2 black & tan boys.  All are very dark.  They are healthy and strong even
though they were five days early.

Good luck with your bitch.
