progestrone test

Hello, I have looked the internet over and can't find any info to help me on this subject. My bulldog is on her 63rd day of pregnancy and progestrone test was 7. Of course, I know it needs to be 2 or so. I'm going back tomorrow for another test. What I was trying to find out was how fast leves can drop when it comes to her going into labor. She is at 7 but needs to be at 2 and I'm going back tomorrow for another test. So I'm wondering, can level drop from 7 to 2 in a 24 hour period? I'm really just curious because I want to learn as much as I can. No matter what I would find I would still go in tomorrow for the test. Still, I would like the info. Can anyone help. Thanks so much

If you look above the posts on this page, there's a search tab.

Search progesterone, you will find all of the posts about pregnancy on the forum. I didn't see anything about progesterone at the end of a pregnancy, only testing at the beginning. One post in particular caught my attention, and I fully agree with it...get in touch with a good breeder immediately and let them mentor you through this, it may well mean the difference between healthy pups or dead pups. Please, find a breeder in your area that is AKC accredited, or find a known breeder on the home page of this website, and contact them immediately. 

Also, you are doing a c-section, correct? You didn't say in your post but it is very dangerous letting a bulldog deliver naturally. The little guys heads a so big they can easily get stuck in the birth canal and you will lose not only the pups but your bitch as well.
