Beyonce the DEFINITELY pregnant pony - SHE'S HERE!

[QueenBey]

you can't really see that much filling in the photos, but i can definitely feel a difference, hopefully it will be come obvious soon. The vaginal opening and inside the vulva are so looose and soft and the membranes are going dark pink with reddening spreading inside.

 

[Bonny]

I can see a difference. How many days is she now?

 

[QueenBey]

No idea, hence the frustration. bought her in foal, had been running her entire life with a stallion unhandled. Vet thinks judging by amount of movement between 8-11 months. Move ment is becoming less though as discomfort increases. The foal used to move all the time in the evening but will now go through a jiggly session then nada.

 

[Bonny]

I just reread the entire thread.... i was wondering if you didnt have a due date for her.. Ive been there with my first pony many years ago... ended up watchingh her for almost a year before she foaled, she was a tricky one. She had vets and breeders stumped.

Its so difficult when you do have a due date much less when you dont!

Just know that we all support you

BTW great video of foal kicking, that is def the kicks of a mare in the last trimester! good strong foal !

 

[Bonny]

I meant to add I have a friend who has a mare that didnt look in foal at all. no udder at all and was due in 2 weeks. I went and looked at her and had i not seen the foal kicking exactly like what you videoed i would have thought that mare open. She went on to develop a full udder in 2 weeks and foal a beautiful big colt. I still have no idea where she was hiding that foal!

Im with Holly, I can see a difference too. Not a lot in the udder dept, but there has definitely been some growth.

I don't think you will have to wait till March

 

[QueenBey]

I hope not, i'm going crazy here, being plagued by foal dreams/nightmares. I need this to be over lol

 

[AnnaC]

She has certainly been doing some shopping! That together with the changes to her vulva could mean that she will foal at any time soon - or she could go another couple of weeks or so LOL!! Keep an eye on her teats and watch for them to completely separate and point downwards as she gets really close. She is progressing perfectly.

 

As Anna said, she has definitely been shopping. And she's been doing some great elongation. Watch those teats, and her elongation, and the color change inside the vulva. Keep us posted as she looks like she could go within a few weeks if she keeps progressing like this!

Exciting times Hannah

very excited for you both.

 

[QueenBey]

Thank you

 

[QueenBey]

Interesting, Beyonce was just sitting down in a part of the yard she never goes to and she never sits down during the day. Inside vulva is gettign redder hasn't bagged up any more since yesterday, vulva extremely loose though.

 

[Ryan Johnson]

Keep a close eye on her now (not that you weren't) mares will tend to show different behaviours as they move closer to foaling. Hanging out in different parts of the paddock that you wouldn't usually see her in. Sussing out a safe place to foal maybe ?

She is probably starting to feel very uncomfortable now at this stage of her Pregnancy. Hope the weather has cooled slightly for you

Its currently Pouring here !!

 

[QueenBey]

Yeah it's clouding up and cooling here. Yah, I've worked at heaps of studs and seen mares foal aplenty but it's very different when its your horse!

 

[Ryan Johnson]

You'll be Fine

 

[AnnaC]

Any differing behaviour is interesting! And yes it IS somehow very different when it is your own horse.

 

Sounds interesting as everyone has said.

 

[QueenBey]

She's started some serious bagging, since 3am last night she's filled out heaps, even leaking a little bit of liquid, can;t tell yet what it is due to not being enough, will get a picture when there's enough, vulva inside is still dark pink, she had contraction again last night and she is a moody cow today lol. Definitely keeping a good eye on her.

 

[Ryan Johnson]

Keep us posted

 

[lkblazin]

Sounds like she is close

. How does her manure look? Cow pieish??
