Did you palpitate her belly to see if you can feel any babies?

What breed is she? How old is she? Did you breed her?

Mini lop 8 months and not intentionally but i went out of town for a while and the person i let watch her and my male holland lop let them play together.. even though i wrote specifically not to in the instructions on how to take care of them..

If shes unspayed and has been with a male she probably is pregnant.

You said you tried to palpate her, did you look up how to do it so you are in the right area?
At this late in the pregnancy you would be feeling anything from the size of a large shooter marble size to a golf ball size lump, it should be firm like a grape where it gives a little between your fingers. If she is tense you may not feel anything. Be very gentle this late in the pregnancy with palpating, they are getting large enough you could hurt the babies if you are too rough.
You also said she is getting moody, this is a good sign that you are within about a week. Do you have a nest box for her? You may want to give her some bedding like shredded paper or straw and see if she starts to nest(this is not always an accurate indicator as I have 2 does that will start nesting up to 10 days before they are due, even to the point of pulling hair.)
Good Luck! Babies are easy, the doe does everything usually, and you have a great support team here if you run into any problems
