Talishan, the baby in your xray isn't engaged at all, unless I'm really misinterpreting guinea pig anatomy. Vipergurl's baby was head down in the birth canal. I'm going to go out on a shaky limb and say you have a few weeks. How many is a few? No freaking clue. I wouldn't be comfortable transporting, but that's just me.

Thanks very much for your insights, all of you. I have never even had children myself, so I have absolutely no idea what's going on or what order it goes on in.

Her health is otherwise quite good (thanks to StF).

Personally, I would feel better keeping her through delivery. With the heat and all the pop up thunderstorms we've been experiencing I just think it would be better to keep her in a controlled environment until babe comes. Then we will get her on her way with the little one.

She is eating and drinking well. She is my loudest wheeker too and loves her veggies! I don't want to upset the apple cart and try to move her.

So...shall we start a pool on delivery dates! :)

Can you tell no one here has any doubts on your abilities to handle the pregnancy? :-D Sure Talishan would do a great job, but since you will too, why risk. Just be aware we will be demanding immediate baby pictures so keep your camera charged or be ware our wrath.

Oh don't worry...camera will be armed and ready! Gosh, I hope it happens when I'm home. I know it won't though. Maybe since both are "with pup" maybe one will be kind enough to let me witness.

Are they in the same cage? Next door neighbors?

No, neither. The way the room is laid out they can only be across the room from each other. Mia is kind of a bitch to everyone else (pig-wise) so she is by herself. Nala is with Miikka and Turco but they are all floor level and can see/hear/smell each other. They are maybe 4 feet apart.

Let there be no doubt that StF will do a much better job than I would, believe me!!!!!! At least she has a son of her own! :-p

StF, I'll email you tomorrow about how we can work it if she needs help delivering.

Thank you so much for being willing and able to keep her until she delivers. I'll feel much better taking her and pup up to Jenn than just her with pup-to-be.

(Mia is also closest to the fridge, so she'd probably vote to stay. ;-)

Hah! I'm glad she's got a nice comfy birthing home, though I'm sure she'll keep that baby in as long as possible to continue soaking up all the veggies. ;)

That sounds like a good layout. I just didn't want one to go into labor and induce the other too early.

Good point. The other will have eight zillion aunties, though. StF has an awesome setup. <hint for pictures>

Pictures tomorrow. Too tired tonight. Very hot and humid on dog walks today. I'm dead.
