April / Delilah / Vernica's Foaling thread Cam Up

[a mini dream come true]

We lost alittle in the udder, but not much. Delilah is very uncomfortable this evening. Took a little while to get there. She is eating now. Baby was moving quite a bit. is dropping some, but not to the "V" yet. Progressing at her speed.

slowly but surely Hazel

She was as quiet as a mouse last night

4.20pm and Delilah standing quietly, snoozing.

 

[a mini dream come true]

My memory has failed me again, but someone on here said a while back that Delilah looked more like 272 days rather than 3 something

. Anyway long story short I started counting her at 272 days from then on. Now today would be 319 days

Just a little trivia

 

[a mini dream come true]

No much change in Delilah this evening. Her belly is a little lower and that's about all. She fills some over night then loses it during the day. Not for a while yet.

 

[a mini dream come true]

Diane, I think she heard you

. We have more progress

. Her udder is fuller than it's been this time of day. She have been doing belly kicks and looking at her belly a lot. Her poo is not real mushy, but softer than normal. I don't imagine she is going to do anything tonight, but little miss lady is progressing

.

I couldn't take pics. something is wrong with my camera so it's camera shopping this weekend

.

She is such a sweetheart. The last couple of days she wants hugs and looks at me like " help me I'm uncomfortable". She loves her sctatches and brushing.

2:46am and she is standing in her corner

looking quiet and peaceful

she is looking lower in the tummy, but doesn't have that V look about her yet... won't be long though! well maybe a few more weeks LOL sorry hazel

 

[a mini dream come true]

Delilah is cooking one special baby that's for sure. She has been acting odd today, but so has Juna, April and even Peanut (our boxer). Peanut had been wining (sp) this morning.Juan and April has been nickering more than usual and Miss Delilah is extremely jumpy. She has rolled three times, done some yawning, and a lot of walking back and forth. Her udder is about half full this morning. Alot bigger than I've seen it. When I figure out how to get the pics off my new camera I'll post. The "V" is still not there.

 

[a mini dream come true]

Delilah is still a little jumpy this morning, but not as much as yesterday. She is enjoying breakfast. To-be son-in-law is coming this morning to help start on the barn. Her is the udder pic I tood of Delilah this morning

She still has some fill ing to do and her hooha needs to soften more, so we still have a ways to go.

 

[Eagle]

Wow she is coming along wonderfully Hazel. I hope she settles down bless her I don't like to think of her spooked.

P.s don't listen to Aunty Diane, she is in a bad mood cos I tricked her

 

[a mini dream come true]

Delilah is doing good tonight. not as jumpy and she held her shopping today. Took pics of Vernica I may have to do two posts, but here they are

Side view with Mirrie

Udder pic

I think she has alot of edema. Not so much in the udder department. Different from the last pic a week ago

I really don't look for her to foal before May. What are ya'll's opinions?

 

[Eagle]

1.30am and all is quiet. Yes I agree Vernica looks a way off yet,

 

[AnnaC]

Thanks for the pictures Hazel. Yes it looks as though Delilah has a little more shoppingto do yet, but Vernica's pictures make it seem that her udder is more advanced than her tummy!

Glad to hear that s-i-l to be is coming back to continue with the barn building - what a useful fella to have around!

2.05am and all is quiet with the lovely Delilah.

 

[cassie]

She is looking so good progressing very nicely

8:25pm n she is eating her food cutie girl

 

[AnnaC]

Approx 3am and all looking quiet.

 

[cassie]

how is your lovely girl tonight Hazel??

anymore shopping??

 

[a mini dream come true]

Sorry ladies no new shopping tonight. Is it part of it that the mommas of the mares get sick too? I'm off to bed. See you ladies in the morning. Have a good day/evening.

 

[MeganH]

Oh no Hazel are you sick now? I do think a lot of the mare's mamas get sick before foalings. I remember plenty of threads when right before the owner was sick. Maybe Delilah and Laney will be foaling soon then? lol Hope you feel better.

 

[Eagle]

Get well soon Hazel

I got sick after Britt foaled, I think it is lack of sleep
