Angel, maiden mare's highly anticipated pregnancy!

[AKMiniMama]

Haha I'm trying but I'm freezing (brrrr it's in the 20's right now and even with the heat lamps and a little electric heater next to me I'm quite cold. Ill huddle down under my blanket and try again. Yay, she didn't bonk her head. Oh that's the other reason- Angel doesn't stay in one place too long and it moves the whole trailer when she moves lol

 

[Eagle]

You two are so sweet there together

who needs a man when you have a mini. ROFL. Is hubby jealous?

 

[AKMiniMama]

Oh and did I mention she thinks my lawn chair is her personal scratching post :-/

 

[Eagle]

Look out she doesn't foal baby right in your lap. Lol

 

[AKMiniMama]

Renee I think he is a bit. Literally 30 minutes after he got back from being gone for two weeks I was sound asleep and he was on baby watch. Not to mention when he just got home from being gone for two weeks I'm sleeping in the trailer with a horse instead of him... His feelings might be just a little hurt but he will survive and forget all about it when he sees that perfect little baby!

Hana I was thinking that if I wasn't careful I might wake up with her IN my lap

 

[AKMiniMama]

Haha not Hana... Sheesh

 

[Eagle]

go back to sleep hahaha

 

CONGRATULATIONS on your beautiful filly!!!!!!!

You did just perfectly and so did Angel!!!!

 

[AnnaC]

Oh WOW!! Brilliant news!! And a filly too!!

Many congratulations -well done to you and Angel! Now we need the pictures please - or when you can, I know it might be difficult with your set up.

 

[AKMiniMama]

Thank you ladies for all your support, she is just beautiful! Thank you so much Diane you were such a godsend and I can never repay your for your help and guidance! Mama and baby are doing well- Angel seems rather disinterested which has me worried and she hasn't let her eat yet, but I was able to milk a little colostrum and bottle feed baby so she's good for the moment. Now I'm waiting for her first poo

. Here is a picture but not a good one as I wasn't the photographer but ill get better ones tomorrow.

 

Just beautiful!! CONGRATULATIONS AGAIN!!!!

Now you can unbind Angel's tail, and not to worry Aunties. Baby and momma are attended with the heater!

 

[Eagle]

OMG I missed it! I am so sorry I had a lay in now

I am glad Diane was around to help you (sssshhhh don't tell her but we think she is amazing ssshhh)

Uninterested mum can happen straight after birth due to the pain, she will be fine once she is feeling better. Yes ad Diane said take her tail and mane plait out as they are dangerous. Once she has done a poop I would move out (taking your heater) lol and leave them alone to bond.

Big Hugs to you for being such a good mum and waiting patiently by her side.

CONGRATLUATIONS

 

[AKMiniMama]

Thank you again. Yes I will unbind her tail I was letting her settle first. And for sure on the heater! I'm in the corner, but baby sure knows where the heat comes from and stays close to it

 

[AKMiniMama]

Yep ill undo her braids and will move out when it warms up a bit, but it is awfully cold and baby seems to need the heater. I also want to make sure she nurses before I leave them be

 

[Eagle]

You must be so excited

I bet hubby has forgiven you too

Good girl Angel for foaling so quickly after daddy got home. I can't wait to hear all the details of how it went.

Hugs

 

[Eagle]

Not spoiled at all

She is one lucky little baby having this diva outfit lol

 

[AKMiniMama]

Haha thank you! I made SIX of them so I could layer if needed, plus I didn't know what size she would be!

 

[AKMiniMama]

Braids all undone, she nursed a bit (not sure how to tell if anything came out or not though) and first poop!!

 

[Eagle]

yes she nursed I could see from here

 

[AKMiniMama]

Oh good! I was watching but had a hard time knowing if she actually got anything. She sure knows where the heater is- she rather be by it than mama

but it is cold so I don't entirely blame her!
