My dog is in heat. Is a swollen private part normal during her period?

Question

Hi! My dog just started her heat and she’s been wearing diaper, her private part is a little swollen. I’m not sure if it’s just because she has her period? Just want to make sure it’s normal. Pet's info: Dog | Pomeranian | Female | unspayed | 7 months and 27 days old | 10 lbs
