Pregnancy. . .

I've been reading up about bun pregnancy as two of my girls are expecting and I've never experienced kits before... Is this information right? I'm a bit unsure on a few points about checking etc. I thought they were to be left alone unless its a total emergency :S I don't want to get it wrong, and really want to give the girls all the help, love, and support I can in the hope that the babies will survive.

If anyone has any pointers I'd be grateful.

If you sit tight there is some info coming about this kind of thing :) I'll rush it as much as I can to get it to you so you can have a read :)
 
And remember what I said about having space once they need re-homed if all goes well with the pregnancies. At least then you'll know where they are and be able to visit.

Just to clarify for anyone that doesn't know the story from previous threads - they are rescues that came to me as emergencies with no real background/history other than they were going to be thrown to dogs if someone didn't take them. They were temp rescued for a few days by a person that clearly has no idea what she is doing as she kept the girls in with her whole Buck :shock:

I didn't allow them to get pregnant, I wouldn't have :(

@Sky-O - thank you! I'm just so nervous! *Paces the maternity ward like an expectant father*

@GingerNinja - I know and I'm grateful to you for that. Fingers crossed all goes ok :?
 
She is a superstar, she came all the way over to see me and reassure me that I was doing okay with my rabbits and to help me just check the sex as I had some doubts about my own ability. :love:
