Russian term or phrase: Исходная беременность
Был похожий вопрос, но что-то мне это выражение снова не нравится/

"Например, в опытах с сирийскими хомяками при парном содержании беременных самок в клетках 20% подчиненных особей не родили, хотя их исходная беременность подтверждается наличием плацентарным пятен".

Точно у млекопитающих "выводок" передается как "brood"? Ты уверены? =)

neutral  Rachel Douglas: The phrase "initial pregnancy" exists, but the meaning's different from this context. It's the first-ever pregnancy of a given animal. Your Google examples include several like that, plus others, where "initial" modifies the noun after "pregnancy."

pregnancy at the beginning [of the experiment]


Explanation:
You have already selected, but I believe the chosen answer does not fit your context.

Here are some scientific articles, some referring to pregnant rodents, cows, etc., using the phrase "pregnancy (pregnant) at the beginning (start) of the experiment."
