Thank you AnnaC. for helping me know about the turn. We did watch that amazing video presentation on the foaling video tools. Yes, it does show the foal turning during labor. I find all of this so fascinating and am just so amazed at all of this. Thanks Diane for your help keeping me in tune to...

Oh.. thank you so much. It is getting so close. We gave Sparkle a new little hut right outside of Jewels pen for night time, because it has rained hard here. Today, I let Jewel out to wander in larger area with Sparkles.. then at their normal 11am nap time.. I saw that Jewel had lay down inside...

Thank you everyone. It is wonderful news to report that after 2 Echocardiograms that revealed abnormal blood flow with a possible blockage on the left bundle branch area of my husband's heart; the Dr decided to do an angiagram. This test revealed that there was clean clear arteries and no...

My horse Jewel.. she has the same advancement it seems as your horse. Jewel's udder looks to be exactly the same shape and size and stage as your horse. Also her belly is right with Jewels. We are both getting very close.

When I see a more definite change in her udder and her sides from back end.. I will get more picts. It is raining a lot lately here. Warm weather brought on a storm. I know things for Jewel can change quickly but as of now.. the 'teats' are pointed inward, almost touching.. her udder has some...

Jewel .. I am a little bit concerned as she just is so uncomfortable. Seems to have colic troubles maybe. Her back end is bothering her as she keeps rubbing on fence. Her tail area is clean, we wormed her a few weeks ago, and her udder is also clean. Last eve.. she stood up most the time and...

I have her in a separate pen at night. It is about a 20x30' and then has the barn type stalls to go into. It has been making her companion horse, little Sparkles quite upset that she can not go in with her and Sparkles has been having attitude issues over it of jealousy. As soon as we let prego...

I know things are getting a lot closer. I say.. close anyways. .. Today, the udder filled more and stayed full. Jewel was quite uncomfortable and agitated, swishing her tail a lot and even pulling it up.. she was standing like a stretch position with her legs. mushy poos everywhere. We ended up...

What an unusual striped main. Very beautiful horse

She looks to be a bit ahead of our Jewel. I think we have at least a week to go.

Awe.. so happy for you. Beautiful.

Last night I had the most 'real' dream. It was so real and I know it was brought about because I wasnt sleeping well. Before I finally went to sleep.. I had given one last peek out my window.. Jewel was standing in her corner asleep so I went to bed.. woke up sometime later to see her laying...

Awe.. cute little goats.. Ya.. we never had any goats deliver at night. I know people do but we found that if we fed them right at dusk.. they would kid out usually between 11-2 the next day unless there was a stahler. The latest we have had one kid was at about 5pm. So .. yes.. not used to this...

The only way I knew Jewel was prego was because I definitely saw movement. From what I have read from many sources.. the baby movement can easily be seen at about 8 months. So from that .. I guessed Jewel to be due at end of February or early March and .. well.. we are just about right on target...

She doesnt have trouble with being checked out in the back end and seems to know what we are doing but hates the camera pointed at her.. but is more like... "Absolutely no camera pointed there at all please." That is where she draws the line of patience

ha ha.. ok.. I will try to get that angle of the udder.. but.. Jewel and I have come a long ways. ... getting an udder picture of her is not terrifically easy. She is getting better at letting me do this but I am still bit nervous of getting down to the hoof kick level ... Don't think she would...

We are all wearing shorts and sandals here. Just went out at night .. no jacket..no cold wind.. nice clear starry sky. I think it usually takes a good storm perhaps to put a goat into labor.. No?

Love the long black tail. It is so thick. My Jewel broke her tail hairs almost all the way off.

Oh my word. That was the most informative video for foaling and for dystocia with the leg folded back.

And a V belly.
