Pregnant Blue Heeler?

Question

Ok so I have the heeler that might be pregnant. Her abdomen is hard. And i know that she definitely has a boy friend. I walked out in my yard one day and saw them and the rest is history. She has been pregnant for 5 Weeks but is not getting bigger. Can somebody tell me if heelers get big when they are pregnant. Or do some dogs just stay thin. Please help and advice would be great. I had a litter of puppies before and we didn't know the mother was pregnant until we walked out in my yard and found 12 puppies. Thanks so much for all of the help. And i promise to get my dog fixed as soon as she has the puppies. If there are any.
