I would recommend to start taking a rectal temperature on her several times a day. Normally if the temperature falls below 100 they will go into labor within 24 hours. You can find more info on signs of labor at https://veterinarypartner.vin.com/default.aspx?pid=19239&id=4951546

Those are all symptoms that labor will be coming soon. You can start taking her rectal temperature 2-4 times per day, it will usually drop close to 98 (normal is 100-102) and labor should start within 24 hours.
