4. Answers to the three misunderstandings that netizens are most concerned about
1.Misunderstanding:If your belly gets bigger, you are pregnant
The truth:False pregnancy, ascites or obesity may all manifest as abdominal distension, which needs to be comprehensively judged in conjunction with other symptoms.
2.Misunderstanding:Can be tested with a human pregnancy test stick
The truth:The canine hCG hormone is different from that of humans. The accuracy of special detection test strips can reach 90%, while the human test strips are completely ineffective.
3.Misunderstanding:Pregnancy can be confirmed immediately after mating
The truth:It takes 10-14 days for a fertilized egg to implant, and early detection may produce false negative results.
5. Professional nursing suggestions
1. After the pregnancy is confirmed, the diet structure should be adjusted. Starting from the 5th week of pregnancy, the caloric intake needs to be increased by 15%-25%.
2. Avoid strenuous exercise and going up and down stairs. It is recommended to use a pet-specific abdominal belt in late pregnancy.
3. Measure your body temperature regularly. The body temperature will drop by 1-1.5℃ 24 hours before delivery.
4. Prepare the delivery room environment and keep the temperature between 26-28℃
