There are many different species of mice, but between them, the average gestation period (period in which the mother is pregnant with the young) is 20 days. After this, the young will suckle until they are weaned about three weeks later. They grow for a few more weeks, become sexually mature at around seven weeks old, and are then functioning adults.

A mouse typically does not carry its babies. The mother makes a nest where she feels is safe, and then gives live birth to her babies. Since mice are mammals, the mother stays with her babies and nurses them until they are able to fend for themselves. The only time the mother will move her babies, is if she feels her nest is in danger.
