HELP! Problems AFTER Breeding

Our two and a half year old Golden Female was bred for the first time last week. She was bred four times, every other day. Now, she acts like it is uncomfortable to walk, she seems unlike her normal, playful self and recently cried when we brushed her near her genitals (something she has never done before). Please help.

DId you have a vet check before you bred her? On both her and the male? Is this your first time breeding a dog? I don't want to get on the repetitive should-you-really-be-breeding talk (which you may have heard before multiple times!) but....keep that in mind. GoldenPup
