    Will be thinking of you and look forward to hearing that baby and mama are safe and well!

    Barely anything at all, but I’m sure that will get there in the coming weeks.

    Udder & milk testing

    Hey ladies, I can’t believe there are no babies from your girls yet! So today I noticed the swelling in front of Rosie’s udder is actually visible from the side. It still feels squishy like it did before, just bigger. Is this just a normal stage of impending udder development?

    How much longer??? Need advice.

    Hi Kristina! I’m also having my first foal (also an auction rescue) so I’m far from experienced, but there’s lots of people on here, who I’m sure will be replying shortly, that really know their stuff! I just wanted to say hi and welcome! There are quite a few of us in the same boat at the...

    Udder & milk testing

    While I know you can’t always tell things from photos, I feel like Rosie, Snickers and Pepper might be around the same stage, so they can be the next 3!

    Well “they” say everything happens in threes so maybe Trixie, Tilly and Squirt will all have their babies tonight! Lol 🤞🤞🤞

    Lol I think you might be right! She loves my “big girls” as we call them. And that’s exciting about Tilly! Come on little one, it’s time!

    That’s the thing about not knowing how far along she actually is, she could have come here early in her pregnancy or Barney could be the culprit! I never saw him do anything but obviously I’m also not out there 24/7 so who knows. On a side note, I’ve attached a picture where one of the things is...

    Oh my god!!! Ok so how does this work with younger studs? The reason I ask is a week after I got Rosie, my father in law brought over a mini gelding to live at my place. He had been gelded a few days prior to being brought here, he was 3 years old. Would that mean he could possibly be Rosie’s...

    Elizabeth, how are your little foals doing? I’m sure all us expectant grandmothers would love to see some pictures! I know I sure would lol

    My Mare is Possibly Pregnant.

    Oh jeez! Well hopefully she got bred nearer the beginning of last summer so you don’t have to wait too much longer! And yes Tilly we’re all waiting on you!!

    Mini mare unknown due date

    That’s a low belly! When she had her first foal, how many days was she pregnant then? Did you own her when she had that foal? If so, she might follow a similar pattern now as to when she foaled before (eg how long after bagging up/dropping/vulva relaxing etc she foaled), or she could be like...

    I just realized I do have a picture from pretty much that same angle, taken this Monday. Putting the two pictures side by side it does look as though a little something is starting to happen, even in the space of 2 days. So if Rosie and Tilly read the same book, we have about 12 weeks to go 😜

    Lol no worries. And yes it feels like something is maybe starting to happen - she’s very good at letting me feel her udder/belly etc. She’s sure come a long way from when we got her - she was a nightmare to catch and would bite and kick at you if you even attempted to go anywhere near her...

    “Mini mare breast pump” 😅 😅 Oh that makes me feel so much better, thank you! I did think was possibly the baby but it looks so creepy! She eats more during the day than she does at night so it’s more visible in the mornings when she turns to the side and you see where her ribs would end and then...

    So adorable! Congratulations!

    Holy wide load! She is adorable! Hopefully she doesn’t keep this up for much longer, you must be exhausted! I tried to take some pictures to show the puffiness in front of Rosie’s teats, but it doesn’t really seem to show in pictures (though I’ve attached them anyway). I know she has quite a...

    No, she’s basically stalled at chunky, odd shaped belly and puffiness just in front of her teats that I can cup with my hand. I’m thinking she was bred pretty late and is going to be more late July, maybe even August.
