How to tell if your guppy is in labor!! :S

 10 WAYS HOW TO TELL IF YOUR GUPPY IS IN LABOR 
LOL that was awkward ;)

1: Hiding in or behind plants

2: Not eating

3: Vicious nipping (my guppy chased other females, not just males)

4: Hiding in corners. Isolating themselves if with other guppies

5. Their butt hole will look bigger. They actually dilate! (o.O)

6: They shake. Also known as shimmying and shivering. These are contractions. (x2 o.O)

7: They arch their backs. (tail goes up, head pointed downwards.) They might shake a little.

8: Swimming around the whole tank. (Looking for a place to have their babies)

9:  If you expect someone is giving birth in your tank but you don't know who, sometimes in my tank I notice a whole bunch of guppies following one guppy. Most of the times that's the guppy giving birth. 

10: Laziness. They don't move as much.
