If Grouse is pregnant, then yes her mammary glands will become enlarged. If you aren't 100% sure she is pregnant, then these lumps could be due to mammary tumors, mastitis, or a false pregnancy. I would take her into the vet for an exam today. The vet can confirm if she is pregnant, or if there is another cause for these lumps.
