we are moveing inbtween xmas and new year our girl will be 4weeks or 3weeks im worried what the stress could do to her and the unborn pups is this stage where she can start rehadsorbing ??? sorry for asking i cant remember :( weve started packing now and all my books are packed away ive also got anoughter post on which is worrying me too :(

I would use a DAP diffuser in your current house (where packing etc is going on) and also in the new house.  I asked DAP and they are perfectly safe during pregnancy.  They can help reduce anxiety... 

Not sure about Zylkene and if that can be taken during pregnancy, but it's entirely natural too so perhaps check that out as well.

will ask about zylkene and il get a dap for new house shes fine with the packing im just worried sick about a new house just not sure what she will do ....if id known we'd be moveing i wouldnt have had her mated :( till next year to give her chance to settle and this being her 1st litter but im hopeing cus we are there she will just take in her stride thankyou rabid x

The key I think is to remain calm yourself. As we all know, the dogs feed off our emotions so maybe some rescue remedy all round xx

I'm moving tomorrow, loading starts today, and I've got a girl here who is just over 5 weeks. Like you I'm worrying about the effects it may have on her as the stress levels are high and it's chaos here. I just hope all will be OK.

yes weve started packing already theres boxes everwhere :( we are stressed its alot of work ...but like you i hope all is going to end up ok all the best to you pedlee and your girl il be reading all went well i hope do you have a rough number on pups?? x

The scanner saw 7, so a nice sized litter. I'm just about to pack up the computer and may be offline for a while as BT have mucked up my order. Quite how I'm going to manage without my Champdogs fix I don't know! :)

well all the best till you get back on here :)

Good luck and bt messing up an order is not unusual as they did when we moved. We were off line for the last3 weeks up to my son doing gcses!
All his revision was online as is these days! He luckily managed to pass and get onto courses he needed despite the lack of revision.
Hope the move goes well x

well we are not moveing now!! long story!! :( but i dont think izzi is in whelp :( any help plz......if her back end is touched she flags still??? she should be 3weeks and 3days today her mamory glands are swelling i thought this is too early?? she hasnt been sick i havnt seen any disscharge nothing!! but this breed are very clean ... im use to med-large breeds she is a toy breed and its new to me stud owner is away at the mo il be geting her scaned in the new year but im feeling abit down and its xmas tomoz i know theres nothing i can do but if any1 can help id be grateful ...she is still swollen/soft but smaller then in season x

You don't want to be seeing discharge this early on and my dogs are rarely ever sick and only are near the end of their pregnancy.  Fingers crossed for the scan.

From what you have said the early mammary swelling is the only indication from past experience that it may be a phantom, I found from 4 phantoms[only on seasons she had been mated] in the same bitch that all development was accelerated, weight gain, boobs, girth etc., when she finally had a proper pregnancy there was none of that.

My girls have never had morning sickness, maybe being free fed helped as they could eat when they felt like it, the only discharge was at the end when losing their "plug".

I hope she is in whelp as I know how disappointing it is when they are not and having to wait several months to try again.

Hi White Lilly, my bitch is nearly five weeks and the only signs I've had are temper changes, and a little thickening around the waist, slight morning sickness. No puking, no discharge, etc. but I know she's preggo! Wait and see in the New Year with a scan xx

im parying she is but something is saying to me she isnt :( she has changed in the fact shes sleeping more and is sleeping on my daughters bed insead of her own bed which is on my daughters floor...roll on newyear for a scan thanks guys xx
