My female boston is 10 months old, she went thru her first heat cycle in march, and she went out of heat around april 1st or so, my mom had left her outside, and now I think she might be prego, she has gained a little weight, but not alot, her vulva still looks bif and her nipples are swollen and a little saggy, no milk yet, I have a pic I can email, please someone let me know so I know what to do or expect. Thank you.

Just treat her as if she is pregnant. Get all the information you need now. Read all about whelping online. You will know for sure in about 4 to 5 weeks. Call the vet now and see what he wants to do. He may ask you to wait until the 4th or 5th week. Then he can feel her tummy and see if any pups are in there. Watch her closely now and make sure she has the proper nutrition, rest, and exercise. Pre-natal care is important!

If she was outside was it loose in the neighborhood? Was in it your backyard? Even in your own backyard a male could have gotten to her so it is best to consider her pregnant. Just be ready because if you are not having her spayed then one day you WILL need all the information anyway.

GOOD LUCK!
