If Candy was with a male then it is likely that she is pregnant. Unfortunately it is not possible to confirm a pregnancy via some photographs, but if she gained a lot of weight and circumference since she was with the male, then that is an important pointer. If you gently palpate her abdomen, you may feel babies.
