Answer
Hi Bree

You are right, thats what I'm here for and I'm sorry if my previous answers didnt help you fully.

There arent really any symptoms as such although over time you will obviously notice weight gain and increased water consumption and in some cases your pig may not like being handled.

24-48 hours before the birth you will notice her pelvic bones part slightly to get ready for the delivery.

If you would like to send me pictures you can email me at jesusguitarking@hotmail.com.
