Question
I have a pregnant female that I cant remember when she got this way, it was either late July or early August, could you possibly tell me some signs to look for so I can separate her from the male? it would greatly appreciated so I can bring her in so they can stay nice and warm. Thank you very much, Cindy Cooper

Answer
Hello,
After your sow was bred she will have her piglets in 114 days.
If she is getting close she should have milk lines (or looked like she is getting milk in)and her teats will protrude more than usually.
When she is within a few hours of having her piglets she will start making herself a nest.  
You need to get her separated as soon as possible so she has time to get settled in and feel comfortable in her new setting.
Good luck...I would love to see picture of the piglets!
