She was born Sept. and we got her 1 month after she was born. She was around 2 sibling boys and her dad the whole month. Is it possible she is pregnant? She seems fatter than normal and her nipples are dark brown almost black. Kind of feels like movement in her tummy.

She is probably pregnant. Make sure that there are no males in the tank still. Guinea pigs can get pregnant again as soon as 24 hours after giving birth. Luckily, they only have a litter of 2 or 4 babies so you won't be overrun! The babies are born with all of their fur and their eyes open and will begin to eat solid food almost immediately. Do not remove the babies. They still need their mother's milk. Make sure that the mother gets extra vitamins as the birth is very strenuous on her.

My little sister's guinea pig was pregnant when we got her and my mom figured out that she was pregnant by feeling her tummy and there was a two ball type things in there that moved when she pressed lightly on them or Caramel would squeal, another way to tell is simply to visit the vet!

Yes, it is possible. Females become fertile as early as 4 weeks of age, and males as early as 3 weeks.

YUP! Please find good homes, not people who don't know anything about them. Poor babies. :)
Oh, please be careful when they are born, don't scare her, keep very quiet around her, cos I had one, and she got scared and stomped the runt, and killed it. CONGRADULATIONS!!! :) Arum
