We can't see your cham. If you are this worried take her to a vet and have her xrayed. The embryos should show up. I answered your earlier post about the weight gain. Unless she was skinny and underweight before she's probably gravid. That is a lot of weight to gain in a week.

she was by no means skinny if anything i alwayse thought she was fat she out weighs my male by about 40 or more grams. If i was to post a pic could anyone possobly tell me if it was gravid
