Will get it asap. I hope it's clear enough.

Ok here they are...but my lighting is terrible. I'm sorry I can't get better shots.

I didn't start taking her temp since I didn't think I had pups comming.
Should I start now????
Is it too late??

Gosh...look at those milk ridges and nipples!

It's so hard to say one way or the other....

Tummy doesnt look pregnant, hard to tell though

I've had a girl go through 3 false pregnancies, NEVER any discharge though.
Her vulva would be hugely swollen, nipples hard and swollen, even expressed milk but never had any discharge.

Hmmm...well I suppose it couldn't hurt...you might as well take her temp just in CASE. I don't know what else to tell you except to just keep a close eye on her. Don't hesitate to take her to the vet if you see anything unusual.

TinyBit · 02-12-2008, 07:41 PM

Temp is 100.2
but it's really warm in our house tonight also.
Does that make a difference???

TinyBit · 02-12-2008, 07:43 PM

She also just had a really loose stool. Also runny. with a little white slick look to it.

That's a pretty normal temp..a little on the low side though. The temp of your house shouldn't make a difference. Continue checking her temp to see if it starts dropping.

OK will do.
Twice a day right? AM and PM.

JaLaYorkieGirl · 02-12-2008, 08:13 PM

I would continue to take her temp, but more to make sure she does not get sick/infection. She does not look pregnant to me and it sounds very much like a false pregnancy. Everytime a female ovulates her progesterone will spike up and stay up for 9 weeks regardless of whether or not she is pregnant or having a false pregnancy!

My concern is you will see a temp drop but not see labor or puppies, because as the progesterone levels drop, the temp drops...and milk production starts. Even without puppies. My female who had puppies 7 weeks ago (first litter) had 3 false pregnancies before that because she was waiting to be bred until she was older...but she went through many changes just like expecting moms did. She produced so much milk we worried about mastitis everytime and watched her very carefully.

Can you feel puppies moving? kicking and rolling around? You should be able to feel that even if there is just one in there!

TinyBit · 02-12-2008, 08:17 PM

Nope no movement... I really don't think she has any puppies in there.

Did your female have a discharge? it is not as heavy right now as it was when I first got home.

how about the loose stool? Normal with false pg?

addicted · 02-12-2008, 08:42 PM

Sounds like she might have a pup in there.

JaLaYorkieGirl · 02-12-2008, 08:45 PM

Definately the loose stools, on and off for a few days. I gave her some canned pumpkin which she hated but it helped!

She did not have a discharge that I remember, but with all the hormonal changes she is going through I would personally not be alarmed by it, especially if it is clear and odorless.
