Ok, so.. this is my first litter with this female. She is my pride and joy and I have been waiting for this moment. She is SOOO beautiful and everyone just LOVES her.
I bred her on the 26 of june and so she's just over 5wks pregnant. (i'm hoping) Since this is her first litter... would 6wks be too late for her to really start showing? She litterally POPPED out at like 2 1/2 weeks and i got so excited thinking.. maybe there are like 4 pups in there and she's just going to start showing early.. then she stoped! and now.. she doesn't even have any breast changes. She is acting like she is.. she is laying around. she was off her food, and now seems like she cant get enough..lol. She didn't want her kibble so i've been giving her soft food.. Which i NEVER do. but i want to make sure she eats. I would be so devistated if after 3 ties and her being in OR for a week and a half, if she didn't turn up pg. This is her first litter and she's about 1 1/2 now. She came from a litter of 6, but that same mama has also had a litter of only 2 or 3. so.. i dont really know what to expect when it comes to how many she might have. I WILL for sure get an xray done at day 58ish.
I'm just trying to ease my mind and see if anyone eles out there has had a female act and look pregnant early on and then just stop looking like she's growning and nothing changing till after 6 weeks.. Thankyou so much for any advice...
