Default Pregnant

I was hoping that some of Yorkietalk's finest could help me with this. I am a small time breeder, I have been breeding for years. I have been watching my daughter's yorkie for two months now (she is in the process of completing her internship and is never home due to her work and school schedule). When she brought her over she did not realize that she was in heat. Well as you all know what happened, she is pregnant now. I had calculated that her due date is March 15th. I have two females myself and in my experience, one goes into labor around day 59-60 and the other around day 65. (so I know all dogs carry differently). Pearl (my daughter's dog) has had milk (colestrum) for 6 days now. She lays around as she is very uncomfortable. I check her temp daily and it has never fallen below 98. She has only nested once and that was 2 days ago. Has anyone had a pregnant dog that had milk that long before labor? Even though she doesn't seem in trouble I'm concerned.
