not sure if she pregnant

my whippet bitch was mated 66 days ago im not sure if she's pregnant because she hasnt gained much weight but ive been feeling movements in her belly , im wondering if it is pups moving in there or not or could it just be her digestive sytems thats causing the movements

Re: not sure if she pregnant

Did you not have her scanned?
I would be taking her to a vet by now as she is technically overdue

Have you had her scanned? have you seen a vet? at 66 days, I would be hightailing it straight to the vets in case she just has the one pup in there

Re: not sure if she pregnant

If it is 66 days post mating, average pregnancy around 63 days you need to take her to the vets asap to be checked out as Swarthy said.

Have you been taking care of her as if she is pregnant?

Re: not sure if she pregnant

Whoah there, it was just a question, most likely referring to feeding and worming regimes, it wasn't meant to cause offence.

This is the bitch that had one slip mating isn't it?

I don't think that's how the question was meant, I think it was more to find out if she'd been eating more food recently, as she'd obviously be needing it, her own body will tell her that. I don't think it was meant as a judgemental statement

I would be taking her to the vets, I personally wouldn't risk waiting until Monday if you're sure she's on day 66, it'll be day 68 by Monday, which is quite a long way over. What has your vet advised? Did you tell them the day she was on, and were they at all concerned?
