Over next two weeks check her vulva. If pregnant the vulva will remain swollen and still retain the lighter skin tone and chances are you will also can see some whitish or colourless sticky discharges coming out from there. If discharge is yellowish and smelly chances are infection... better rush to the vet. If not pregnant the vulva will shrink over the nest few days till it come back to its normal size and the colour should be darker brown.

Feeding for the first month till confirm pregnant should be just plain normal and only increase if confirm pregnant...will teach you what to feed xtra for healthy puppies.

Keep us posted and those who have done it before will teach you how to be a good midwife to your dog.
