Mouse pregnancy stages

Question
Where can I find pictures of the stages of pregnancy in a mouse.  For example, 10 day  12 day  14 day pregnant mice

Answer
Dear Mary,

I have had litters of 1 and of 18.  Some mice won't look pregnant until the last few days; others may be huge during the second week.  It really depends on the number of babies.

If she looks like she swallowed a pear, it could happen any day now.

Have fun with the babies!
