| Is she gonna have puppies??? I took my lil Gracie to the vet a week ago or so and they told me she isnt preggy..they did not ultrasound but felt her and just said no way..NOW she is leaking milk and I thought the weight gain was from me feeding her like crazy as she was only 4 lbs when I got her from a back yard wench who was abusing her. Is she pregnant? |

Ultrasounds can be misleading at early timeframes. Is her vulva swollen? Is she at a safe weight and health you could schedule a spay now? Talk to your vet see what he/she says, bring her in for a check-up. How much does she weigh now? A week or so ago she was 5lbs something.

IDK...I took my girl into the vet at day 49 (i think) and they palpated her abdomen and said they didnt feel any pups at all, but did feel pregnancy fluid in the horns. Have you felt puppy movement? it would be worth the expense getting an x-ray to make sure. If she was pregnant, about how far along could she be? | |

| If she would have been due the 28th and your not feeling strong puppy movements, I'd think it was a false pregnancy. IDK....thats a lot of weight to gain in 2 weeks. If you want to be certain, take her in for an x-ray. |

Is there anyone near to you experienced with whelping? At this point any kind of breed will do, but if you just so happen to have a small breed breeder that would be best. Probably this is a false pregnancy, she feels safe n secure, and got lots of good food to eat, so was able to put on a lot of weight in a short time. My fingers n toes are crossed for you. Please keep us updated.

| I can both feel and see her tummy move. She cant lay and stay still..she moves about alot.. Shes been leaving me alot.. Gracie is always where I am .. At the PC by me or in the TV room ..any place I am but the last two or three days she has been leaving me to go upstairs alone or in the den alone. Shes been crawling under the blankets. I have cases throw away chux,Gloves etc, alot of nursing supplies due to my job. No to the light..I do not have those ..I have heating pads if that is of any help? I only know people who have had dogs that they werent bright enough to get fixed. I dont know anyone who really knew a thing about the pet they owned. thats why I joined YT. |

| are you feeling strong movements or flutters? My girl is 62 days. I can feel heads and legs moving around in there. When she relaxes her tummy, I can feel their positions. Its obvious to me cuz I know my girl's abdomen. do you have a bulb syringe to clean out mouths and noses? Thats gotta be nerve wracking for you. |

| can feel lumps moving but nothing I can tell is a limb head or all that! yes I have nasal aspirators. and yes my nerves are wrecked cuz I was told she was NOT with pups ..I have her set to be spay on the 3rd. Shes resting well right now. |

Donating YT 4000 Club Member | I'm thinking that if you are seeing the stomach move when she's lying still, then she's definitely going to have pups. It also sounds like she is trying to nest. Do you have an area that you can set up as a whelping box? Some place quiet and warm. Turn off the a/c to the area if you have too.

Donating YT 4000 Club Member | Do you have the number of an emergency vet handy? Just in case. I remember they told you no, but I don't remember if they xrayed her.

| yes I do.. I have a cage I put dogs I find loose in till they get picked up by the owners or till I know they are safe to have near my pets. I can set that up in one of the rooms..I have a 15 room house and dont have AC running to all of them. Any other things I should do? Does the leaking mean that she will have pups soon IF she is ? |
