If she's going to reabsorb, I'd suggest that is more likely to happen around the 5 week stage. We had one who at that stage of her pregnancy appeared to be carrying a reasonable load. After that, and I don't do scanning, she just didn't get any bigger. Yes by 7 weeks I could see some movement so knew she had something there, but by the time she was due, nothing happened. So I took her in for examination and yes, x-ray (the puppies should be okay with this if done pretty much at the time labour should begin) and it showed just the one. She was big (female puppy) and sitting there so a C.Section had to be done. In truth there was no sign of there having been more puppies (and she had no nasty discharge at the time I thought something was going on).
By 7 weeks you should see puppies moving around so frustrating as it is, I'd just wait and let her get to no more than a couple of days after her due date at which point if she's still not producing, see your vet.
