In the first few weeks, there are very few outward signs, so you may not notice a change. Your dog will seem like her normal self, although she may gain some weight. Morning sickness affects some dogs, but only for a few days during the 3rd or 4th week. By the end of your dog's second trimester, her belly will get bigger. Around this time (by day 40), her nipples will begin to get darker and larger, too. As your pet's due date gets closer, her breasts will enlarge, and a little milky fluid may trickle out.
