| I've not had that happen with my female after being in heat. They aren't hard and lumpy are they? |

| Ruby went into heat at 6 1/2 months and after her heat she went into false pregnancy where her nipples got large and around her nipples got swollen and hard. Her nipples didn't turn a different colour though. I took her to the vet and he confermed that she was fine but going through false pregnancy and to watch her. She is now spayed and doing fine. |

| Hmmmmmmmmm First Welcome to YT. Princess is going to be three in March and has never had that happen. I think it might be time for a vet check, just to be on the safe side. How old is she?

| WELCOME TO YT. It is not uncommon for nipples to swell and sometimes they even develop milk. It is a hormonal thing. |

| First heat - The worse? My female Abigail went into her first heat almost a month ago. It seemed like it lasted over a month? From beginning to end. She was miserable, slept all the time or not at all. Chewed and pulled all her hair out around her butt/back and hind legs, she looks like a little lion. She still looks swollen, even her nipples. Thank Goodness it is only every 6 months. |

| Welcome to YT. It is possible that your little girl is having a bit of false pregnancy. You can ask your vet to take a look if you are really concerned. |
