Pregnant Olde English Bulldogge?

Question
Hey!
My husband and I are wondering if there are any symptoms of pregnancy that we might notice in our Olde English Bulldogge. We bred her a few weeks ago when she was in heat, and we know its too soon to really tell, but are there any signs we can watch for? Im having a hard time finding information online!
Thanks!

Answer
Hi Amber

Typically a female will slow down, become more affectionate and have a change of appetite.  This isn't always the case, but it does happen.  

It should also be noted that a false pregnancy has all the signs of a true one without the end results.

We've found measuring the chest and stomach area before and during expectant pregnancy usually helps. With a true pregnancy both the chest and stomach will expand, with a false only the stomach.

Good luck
