i think she going in labor

Question
Well i think she is on her 54 now, last 3 nights she did want to eat for my boifriend so i try and she ate but no alot but and she went in my room and in my closet and dint want to come out but she did ...She was looking like  she was going to be told off for something, and looked a little nervous. This is very out of charactor for her. As then i let her out and i been noticeing that she has  discharge on her vulva. I sat with her all nigh and miss work to make sure she was ok, she keeps licking and cleaning herself down below. Today she has only had a very small amount to drink, she is looking very sad and keeps looking at me and not letting me go any where but she  walking forwards, and around in circles. She looks lost, as if she doesn't know what to do, and keeps going back . She is also walking very slowly. She has been asleep for just over an hour in her whelping box, and i have been researching for information on the internet  for about a week but can't seem to find much. Can you tell me if you think she is nearing labour, or if her behaviour is normal at this stage? Any advice/help would be much appreciated.  

Answer
Hi. What type of discharge are you seeing? If it's clear, that's fine. If it's any other color, then something's going on. You said she's not drinking much, walks really slow and sometimes in circles. My best advice here would be to take her to the vet for a check up. She may be getting ready to go into labor, but at day 54, we don't want that, the pups wouldn't survive. We want her to get to at least day 58. Her behavior may be normal for her, she may sense something big's about to happen, but because she's not wanting to eat/drink, and is walking slow (may indicate pain of some kind), I would get her to the vet to be checked out. Good luck.
