I've also seen mine running in their sleep. She's such a cutie. Can't wait to see the baby!

 

[Eagle]

Ah she was dreaming

 

[Gone_Riding]

Yeah, I've seen mine running in their sleep too.

 

[countrymini]

Yep, mine do it too. What a tease tho!

My APHA stallion starts talking to the girls and he is out flat sleeping. I've had several of our mares nicker(like talking to their baby) and they are still pregnant.

Well Summer was acting very odd yesterday. Flat out around 4pm breathing heavy, and very uncomfortable. She ate her grain then went right back down. Then around 6ish she was flat out again, fell sound asleep but only for a couple minutes. Then she rolled in her stall, which she never does. Then up around 7 and never saw her back down throughout the night.

I don't even remember what its like to sleep anymore...... I have been going to the barn several times a night/early morning, I hate that its 15 minutes away

I still dream of rolling out of bed to check my horses. One day!

Last night I had the luxury of sleeping in the car! How fun! LOL. She was just acting way to odd to leave at all. My class was SUPER fun at 8am this morning!

Oh but guess what!!! First time I have ever been able to express liquid from her bag, and at 1 am this morning she tested between a 6.8-7.0 on the foal time strips. So maybe soon!? Heres to hoping!

 

[Gone_Riding]

Oh, thank heavens you were finally able to test her! I'm curious, what color was the liquid? I hope you got some good sleep, even if it was in the car!

 

[Never2Mini]

Oh how exciting !

Come on out baby so human momma can get some sleep.

 

With a 6.8 it's good you're watching her! Some will hang on and slowly drop -- but I've seen mares go from 6.8 to foaling in the same day.

Very exciting -- keep us posted!

 

[lexischase]

Friend just called me to let me know she left the barn just about an hour ago, so off I go to my new bedroom in the car LOL!

Here are a couple pics!

Viola the udder fluid was clear, hopefully that changes ASAP! Hey wheres Mindy? Cause I really need to borrow that camper right about now

 

[AnnaC]

How's she looking this morning? With that 6.8 things COULD happen very quickly - or not. LOL!! Come on Summer, you are soooooooo close!!

 

[cassie]

yes I agree!! Suzie was 6.8 the morning that she foaled... she foaled at 8:30pm that night! hoping for some good news very soon!!!

 

[countrymini]

Go Summer!!!!

 

[lexischase]

Driving me nuts here!! Breathing heavy, going from flat to not flat out. I just wish they could tell us when it was going to happen!

 

[countrymini]

That is probably her trying to communicate with sign language

What time is it over there?

 

Keep us posted!!! Very exciting!!

Praying for an uneventful foaling of a healthy little one!

 

[SummerTime]

Here I am Lexis!! That camper saved my life!!

How is Summer doing?

 

[lexischase]

Mindy! You are back! It feels like you joined us and had the colt so quickly, and now you are gone

Go get another pregnant mare LOL!

Summer is good, happy as a clam. Only change is that I can get (clear) milk from her very easily now. Tiny bit lighter in color on the foal time strips, but still driving me nuts!!

I think Dove is also in foal. Calling a new vet to see if they will scan or ultrasound her. Cant do this guessing game all over again.

I clipped Dove's face today but it still needs more cleaning up, but I took a few photos of her so I thought I would share. Will get new photos of Summer tomorrow!

The really dark photos just came out that way, I think they look really neat! Oh and one is of Dove and my sister Laina and they are both crossing their legs (by accident)

 

[cassie]

lovely, she is a beautiful mare! hey were able to get that lovely palli?

she sure could be pregnant... looks like a bit of a tummy happening!

 

[Jade10]

I just love her evenly marked legs and she has such a gorgeous face
