Labor?

It's not been three months since I've had my two goo girls, and if anyone remembers, the person we got them from had been keeping them with males so I felt she might be pregnant. Anyways, she did bloat up about the 2nd month, but suddenly the "bloating" went down and I thought she might not have been pregnant and just fat.
Today though, she dug a little hole in the bedding on the floor and she's been laying down half on her side and on her belly, and my other girl is sitting on top of the house watching her and making typical goo sounds (which my girls rarely ever do!).
I think she might be giving birth but I'm not sure if she is even pregnant. What are the signs of labor?

Hi, have u tried to feel for her nipples? They start to show about week before giving birth. If u find those u can be sure she's pregnant and take it from there.When my goo was pregnant she would lay only on her side in the last few days of pregnancy and u could see the babies moving inside. If she is in labor, u don't have to do anything, just don't stress her out. Her cagemate will help her. Sorry can't give u better advice. Keep us posted

I'll check her tomorrow to see if I could see any. She was being all dramatic and laying on her side, I fed them their veggies and their hay, fixed around everything in their cage since they moved everything around and she continued laying there, and as soon as I closed the cage, she got up and ran to her wheel and ran like crazy. I'm not sure she's pregnant, she looks about the same weight as my other girl though!

When she is sitting or standing, how does the belly look like? Often, a pregnant lady short before giving birth is said to have the shape of a pear. I have been looking for a foto but I couldn't find the one I had in mind. Will keep looking for it. edit: Look HERE.
