Too soon to tell since ending heat hormones are the same as pregnancy hormones. 28 to 32 days post tie a vet can palpate to confirm pregnancy. About day 35 or so you can get an ultrasound done and see their little heartbeats. Some nonreliable signs you can look for is vulva remaining somewhat swollen, teats becoming dark and more pronounced and mammary tissue growing. Morning sickness around 3 weeks is a pretty good sign, but not all dogs have it. Around 5 or 6 weeks weight gain should be visible, but this is true in a false pregnancy as well (generally with a false they show quicker and are bigger). Heartbeats can be heard with a stethoscope as early as day 42, but definitely by day 50 when movement is also felt.
