Thanks Kelly,

I was thinking the same (actually not quite that high), and I am a bit worried I offered the higher end of the range too late. But I saw her on the warmest part of the cage for prolonged time and it really wasn't warm...so I figured I needed a change.

I have no idea how far along she is now but the swelling has certainly increased a lot since I offered the higher range. I guess the only thing I can do now is cross my fingers they will be alive. She seems to thermoregulate somewhat appropriately now, she stays on the warm end but her body movements are what I would expect, and part of me wonders if she is not drifting too much in the cooler side because of how cool it was in the early stages of her pregnancy.

Again, I guess we can only wait and see.
