Welcome to BYH!
I heard that for pigs you need to have a space for the babies to get away from the mothers so that she doesn't accidentally step on them or something. I don't have any experience with pregnant pigs yet, sorry. :}

Thank you I have her pen prepared With safe warm baby place Im just trying to figure out why she has milk but no signs of labor yet

You're welcome!
I'm not sure about pigs, but goats can, and I think often do, start to fill their udders before they have the babies. Some though, I have heard, will wait to fill their udder until they have the kids! I would guess that pigs are kind of similar?

Everything I have read has said that within 48 hours of milk showing up I should have babies lol I first noticed it Thursday and still nothing. I posted in pig forum hopefully someone will see it!
