I have a pig, she is pregnant, can feel piglettes moving and can hear hb's on doppler. Ive read and read til my eyes have crossed and think she is getting close to farrowing, but not sure. This is my first time birthing pigs, and her first time too. I have so many questions, looking for answers I am not sure can even be answered.
She was housed with the boar got them both when they were very young, she has always been extra friendly, lap pig and he is sweet but shy. They are now separated, but share a fence line so they can visit. Our girl has a 6 x 5 stall bedded and we have a barn cam on her so we can keep an eye out.
We do not know when she was bred, so no due date

We do know that in the last several weeks her tummy has gotten MUCH larger being several inches off the ground to now dragging the ground. Her teats have gotten much bigger in the last couple of weeks, and has started an udder. Her vulva has started to get swollen and saggy. Still no milk, no nesting. She is breathing harded, due to a tummy full of piggies... We can see them move through her tummy now and they are kicking much harder than they were. She has even developed in the past 2 days a dark area around her nipples.
So with all these signs, we keep waiting and watching and hoping we can catch it to watch on camera. If she needs help we can, but we would like to just watch from the cam. From what ive read it seems she is close, but how close? days , weeks or a month?
