How far along are guinea pigs in their pregnancy when you feel kicking?

i have started to feel kicking and didnt even know that she was pregnant until i felt them how far along is she, she is extremely fat and i have felt kicking for about a week and a half
Answers:
Kicking is typically felt beginning around the 6th or 7th week. They are pregnant for approximately 10 weeks. So she should be due in around 2 1/2 weeks or sooner.
Could be her digesting her food.
she'll have her babies in about 4 weeks

You have any where between two and four weeks to go, (O:


Gestation is 68 day for your piggy. There is no real way of knowing until the last 3 to 4 weeks, as she will begin to look like a pear, she will have a normal sized head and just get larger as you look back. How old is she? If she between 8 and 9 months you may find yourself in a boatload of trouble. Guinea pigs over 9 month that have never had babies before should NEVER BE BRED, as the pelvic bones fuse together and WILL NOT allow the babies to pass down the birthing canal. If this is the case, you need to call a vet and find out your best course of action.

If you bought her from a pet store, and she is young, you more than likely do have a pregnant female, as is the case with most piggies from pet store. Some Pet stores get their piggies from what is know as an animal miller, the female can be bred at 3 to 4 week and baby male can bred at 4 week, Our rescue is filled with these so called pet store mishaps.

If she is not too young you should be fine, and if she is not over 9 months you should be fine, my best suggestion is if you are not sure of her age you need to go to a vet, and find out.
