You'll need to wait about 1 more week before you will be able to check for pregnancy. Your veterinarian can do this via blood test, palpation or abdominal x-ray or ultrasound. The enlarged teats may be an early indication. A small amount of mucus-like or pink tinged discharge during pregnancy is normal.
