Mommy found a very interesting website, www.debbiejensen.com/date.html that will calculate what is going on in my tummy! You simply put in the date of my first mating with Windemere, December 1st, and the calculator will fill in the rest.
For example............

Sat 26 Dec 2009 -
Wed 30 Dec 2009 An experienced person (a breeder or a veterinarian) can tell by careful palpation whether the dam is pregnant.
It's now the best time to do this because the embryos are walnut-sized now and easy to count.
Tue 29 Dec 2009 Start to increase the dams food ration.
Don't overfeed, excessive weight gain should be avoided.
The foetuses are formed now and are fully developed miniature dogs...(end of this week)
So my babies are really little puppies now! This is so exciting! I am having a great time at Grandma's house. All of the grandchildren have been here and I get so much attention and love. My little friend, Candi, has been welcomed with very loving arms and her new mommy and daddy (Grandma and Papaw). They are very proud of how smart she is and how sweet. She likes to chew on me a little too much, but that's a puppy for you.
