The belly has arrived...

Apparently Porsche was tired of Lily getting all the attention because her belly popped last night.

I'll try and get some photos this weekend...doesn't look like much, but it's there! :)

And no, I haven't forgotten...

...about Porsche. There's just not a lot to report. She is a total suck and she's getting thicker around the middle as time goes by. I can't decide if she's carrying a ton of puppies, or only a few. She has become heat sensitive which is unusual for her, and she looks like a sausage, but she's certainly carrying her puppies differently than Lily did.

So, while there's no doubt in my mind that Porsche's pregnant, I don't know if she's carrying two or three puppies or ten or twelve.

I guess we'll know in three weeks time, won't we? :)

A second opinion...

A friend of mine came for a visit yesterday and said, out of the blue, "Porsche's pregnant. She's really thick and her body's changing."

...so I guess I can shut up now and just wonder HOW many puppies she has. LOL

The weather is beautiful today...time to change my clothes and take the pregnant dogs for a run! :)

This is my least favorite time...

There is a three to four week period where the puppies are all tucked up high, high in a bitch's tummy and she doesn't look pregnant - at all. It drives me crazy because for that three to four weeks I fuss, and worry and fume and wonder what went wrong that she didn't get pregnant.

Of course, by the time five or six weeks rolls around post ovulation, I'm like, "Oh yeah! She's totally pregnant...told you - I knew the whole time!" /grin

I just hate this period where there is no BELLY...though Porsche is getting THICK and holding onto every scrap of food I feed her. I've actually had to cut her food intake a little bit because she was getting so fat she had a DIMPLE above her tail - that's WAY too fat, even for a pregnant girl! LOL

So, Porsche's just getting a little less...not like Lily the piggy who's eating me out of house and home! :)

Looking promising...

Porsche's starting to get a little thick around the middle...

Oh...and have I mentioned that she's super mellow and a real suck yet? It's getting worse! LOL She just wants to lay in my lap on the couch and have me pet her belly.

I can't imagine what she's going to be like when those little wigglers start to really grow!! :)

Some photos of Porsche out and about...

Spring at the acreage...lots of water to sploosh through!

No real signs yet....

Ok...that's a bit of a lie. There's just no belly yet. LOL

There are, however, other signs...Porsche has turned into a really mellow girl (except for her obsession with the cats who insist on teasing her through the fence!) and her nipples have enlarged significantly - pink and soft (that's a good thing).

So just more of the same here...waiting.

Enjoy the rest of your weekend everyone! We're supposed to get a week of rain and cold weather - so I'm going to go out and spend a part of the afternoon running my doggies in the field! :) It might be a while before they get to see the sun again!
