In order to best help you, I would need to know the exact symptoms Babes is showing. I'm not sure if she is straining or showing some other sign that makes you think she is giving birth. I'm also not sure if you suspect she is pregnant or not. To be safe, it would be best to take her into the vet. If you do suspect she is pregnant and she is straining then stopping, then that could be a sign of a difficult labor, which is a medical emergency. You can also post again with more information about her symptoms, and the experts at Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach can better help you.
