Another Carmel Update

[weerunner]

Carmel is looking wonderful, she has filled in alot, which makes me sure that most of her trouble was dehydration (such a senseless thing). Here udder is very big, and her milk is white and easy to express. The milk is testing at the extreme end of the foaling ranges, so this theoretically should be 12 hours to foaling. Wish us luck everyone. I'll post as soon as Junior arrives.

Carmel presented me with one foot and one nose last night and no sign of foot number two. I had to go in up to my elbow in past her pelvic bones and retrieve the other foot. She needed a fair bit of help even after that as there was little to no amniotic fluid left to lubricate passage. Most stressful delivery I've ever had, but little one is safe and heathy. He is not a mule, he is a beautiful little colt and so tiny, he walks straight under mom's belly. I just adore him already. If you all remember I was looking to buy a pinto stud when I found Carmel instead. LOoks like I found a pinto colt too. Thank you God for knowing more than me and showing me the right decision to make.

I'm so happy for a healthy baby and a safe mommy! Bless you for taking Carmel in and saving both of their lives. Does he have a name yet?

 

[arabbossmare]

woooohoooooo Goooo Carmel and Carmels mommy.

God truly loves to surprise us! Here all this time you thought what have I taken on and lo and behold God responded. My child you have taken on a dream! Carmel and God had a plan for you in a little secret! Don't you feel so blessed?

Please get Carmel vetted to be sure nothing happened to her while in delivery. I hate to hear when a mare has a problem. He is a beautiful baby!

Carla and Spike who says *okay I will admit he is cute...but not cuter than me!*
