>From what I have observed, is the male stays back and looks at her in a
weird way, and she seems extremely uncomfortable. She tries to lay down but
just never seems satisfied with the way she is laying.
Also she will start to check herself a lot. I have never heard her squeak
while in labor nor do I recall the male thumping when she is in labor.
