Have you heard of false pregnancy? It's quite common. My dog was male but other members should have more information.

Also scans are not 100% reliable. Not worth the expense either, as they don't make a dog any more pregnant if she is, don't make her any more pregnant if she isn't, and what they have on board on the day of a scan that does show puppies isn't necessarily what she would carry to full term.

If mine were anything to go by, you won't see much until the last couple of weeks of pregnancy, but then you will see unmistakable signs. Hormones can mimic pregnancy, but the false pregnancy is also a thing, so keep a look out for changes, and all the best with her.
