You are late with breakfast Cassie - naughty girl!!

 

[bannerminis]

Yes and late with the milk test and filling us in on the latest with our little Penny

 

[AnnaC]

Ah Ha!! Breakfast arrives!!!

 

[AnnaC]

The two greedies have swooped in to finish up the crumbs. LOL!!

 

[a mini dream come true]

Yeah! now we get to go outside. Looks like a pretty day. What's the test show?

 

[Eagle]

Hurry up Cassie!

 

[cassie]

yeah sorry major sleep in today lol woops.

nothing to report

the milk test is back up at 7.2 again!!!! I know I saw a 6.4 yesterday I have the test strip to prove it...

I SO give up with this mare!! I'm just so over it all lol

I thought I could feel a few little kicks when she was trying to eat Smarties breakfast but nothing definite grrrrr I am so annoyed LOL

sorry girls. I really just don't know what is going on. maybe she isn't pregnant after all

 

[cassie]

I posted the recent pics to the main forum and about the milk...

I guess I'll just wait and see.

I am not one to coat things in sugar so I must admit Cassie that I am starting to have my doubts. Her tummy hasn't changed at all in the last month which is what makes me think she isn't. I hope and pray for you that I am very wrong cos I know how much you want a friend for Finn.

Please let me be wrong

 

[cassie]

I've figured that you both have had your doubts... I certainly have had mine!

But I am not going to think about it today. I just had a real good halter lesson with Finn a bit hard with his mumma wanting the food aswell but he focused really hard n went really well. To be honest I wouldn't mind if penny wasn't in foal im so busy with everything at the moment n I want to properly train Finn. I would love really love to have another foal around n I think penny would have gorgeous foals... In my novice opinion. I just hate the fact that I have dragged you all into this.

Sorry. I feel a bit stupid about all of this lol

I'm going to the movies today with rebekah n her mum so I'm going to stop thinking of penny for a while. Thanks

Cassie what ever the reason we are all together is a very good reason to me, whether we are chatting about Miss Penny, your hols or Anna's beautiful fields it is a reason to be together and have fun.

 

[AnnaC]

I'm so with what you said Renee - we have all been together now for along time, friendships have been made and will last forever. Anyway, think of the entertainment that Penny has given us all over the past weeks no matter what she decides to do over the next week or so! She certainly is an enigma!!

And stop saying that you are stupid - YOU ARE NOT, very far from it!!

((((HUGS))))

 

[cassie]

haha thanks girls.

no progress on Penny tonight... I didn't milk her as I don't want to keep doing that...

had a lovely time at the movies today and I got a new skirt and shirt

very nice day with rebekah and her mum... just spent the last two hours baking and ironing have to take Andrew to school early tomorrow so I am headed to bed.

Night all.

Have a lovely day

Night Cassie, sleep well, Penny has her friends watching over her. Actually Penny herself seems much more relaxed this evening, but something (or someone) is 'moving' her door. Looks a bit like someone outside rubbing on it, but if so, they have been rubbing for quite a while! Maybe it is the wind rocking it to and fro - just an inch or two? Or maybe it is the 'spirit' who governs indecision, rattling the door and saying "come on Penny, it's make your mind up time"!!!!

If you call yourself stupid one more time I might have to drop your place and smack you on my way to Tamworth

Remember my girl Dreamy? She had her breeders convinced she was in foal, and they knew her very well! I then had doubts and asked another very experienced breeder who leaned towards yes. Well she then showed us her sense of humour by going straight to Pallidon, squatting and winking at him

But she had everyone fooled!

Friendships here are NOT dependent on foals!

Oh yes they are! If you don't share foal pics I'll never speak (type?) to any of you ever again!

:rofl

Speaking of aren't we due for some new pics of the lovely Volt?

 

[MeganH]

Cassie- Like all the other ladies have said, we are all here and all friends. We are here for each other and here for YOU no matter what is going on! And no no... you are not stupid!

I hope you sleep well tonight, friend!

Diane- I have sent you a PM

 

[a mini dream come true]

Goodness gracious Cassie

We all love you no matter what. I want to tell you also that while watching Delilah I always have Penny up. I Simply love to watch Penny, Suzie, and Finn out in the paddock. They always make my day. Finn was playing with the bucket last night (your day). It really is super to watch day time and night time at the same time. Love you dear friend

Cassie, we've ALL been through this with our own mares. Sometimes they just don't read the book or they do and they think it will be fun to mess with our minds! I have a mare now that I keep looking at and swearing she's bred (if she is, it was an oops breeding) but I've had her blood pulled (this vet doesn't US minis) and it came back negative. But I still look at her and watch her and think for SURE I see a baby moving in there. But no bag, no loosening in the rear. But still I worry. I'm probably going to have to load her up and drive the 2 hours each way to the vet that does US on minis just to put my mind at ease. By the time I make that trip, pay for the office visit and the US I will have spend $200 and I will probably get the same answer as I did with the blood test, but for whatever reason my gut just keeps saying she's in foal. I'm ready to pull my hair out!!!

So, don't worry. No harm if she isn't and good thing she's being watched if she is.

6:00am cam time- penny is down sternal resting.

6:13 am cam time down FLAT!! never seen her flat! she looks like she is just

resting.

6:15 she is up standing looking out the door

Cassie, what does her milk feel/look like? Is it oily, like motor oil and thick? Yellow or opaque white? With pH changes like that you should also be seeing big changes that you can see/feel in the milk.
