Bitch on day 38

Hi, my bitch was matted for the second time back in oct, she missed first time she should now be on day 38 but not really looking that much bigger, teats are up a little bit but not alot,

she dose also have phantoms pregnancies

so do you think there is any chance she is still pregnant or is it likely she missed again as I expected to be able to see a few more sings by now if she was

You could have her scanned then you would know

Yes I could but my vet charges £130 to scan which I don’t fancy paying just to find out she is not pregnant again.

Re: Bitch on day 38

Ring around different vets!!!!!, my local vet charges £77, shave their bellies and make them lay on their backs on the hard table.

I rang around and found a vet about 3 miles further away, they charge £34, no belly shave, she had the scan standing up, stood on vet bed, (much much nicer experience)and I can another scan done free of charge 10 days after the first!!!

My toy poodle is 39 days and I can feel a bulge in her normally very slim belly, and can very gently feel the outline of the 'pups', her teats are up slightly, no other symptons are noticable apart from being more clingy than normal

Thanks Bea i have called round a few just a little worried taking her somewhere i dont know as my vets are expensive, but they are good and i do trust them!
my girl has got a little bigger belly but she is a larger breed so i expect it may just be take longer for her to show

Re: Bitch on day 38

I thought my vets were nice/good till I tried somewhere new, very happy with this new vet and have discussed with them about their out of hours service incase we need it

Good luck with the tummy watching!

sheep scanners are much cheaper and far more accurate!
