Fudge again!

Question
LONG TIME NO TALK! thought I'd just say that

Second Fudge still hasn't had her baby(s) and I'm second thinking her pregnancy... She's probably 8 - 10 weeks into her pregnancy (meaning she can have them any day as you know) and nothing yet! Here AGAIN are her "simptums" (miss spelled probably and new though!)

-Drinks A LOT (Finished her 16oz.(it think) water bottle in less then 2 days)
-eats alot (for her)
-is sitting in her shavings instead of in her little log house
-Whines A LOT if you touch her belly
-her pelvic bones seem a little bit wider but I'm not too sure
-does NOT liked to be picked up (again)
-Fights more when I go to pick her up(hense y I haven't picked her up NEARLY as much)
-She weighs OVER 1 pound and 5 ounces (scale needs new batteries...)
-her tets have gotten bigger and the hair around them is thining and, in a small ring around them, gone.
-my mom said she actually bit her the other day (she hasn't EVER bitten anyone)-- could she be testy?

Thanks again for all your help!

Answer
Hi Bree

I hope you are well.

Once again, increased symptoms of being close to birth. She is obviously very testy and irritable and, as you say, she is due any day now.

There's no reason to worry, I'm sure Fudge will be fine. Keep me posted though.
