Dummy foal, asphyxia

[Charlotte]

WONDERFUL NEWS! I've been trying to drop in here to get updates and pulling for your little girl while dealing with our sickies. This is just great!

I haven't read all, but did anyone mention cold? Foals born in cold or even just cool weather sometimes become too cool and lose the desire to nurse and become very lethargic and of course not nursing or not nursing enough it just spirals down from there.

Thank goodness that baby is 'on the go'!

Oh, such a relief to hear that she is doing better! I can't wait to see more pics of the little cutie! Keeping her and you in my thoughts!

Parmela,

We have had several fainting foals throughout the years. Although it scares the daylights out of you (because they truly "appear" dead) - ALL of our foals outgrew it within a couple weeks and grew up to be happy healthy horses. Best of luck to you and your filly.

She's home!!! She gained 6lbs while there!

I'm sitting in my family room watching her on camera now and she using the stall as her personal racetrack!! She's nursing consistently and we have antibiotics to give her plus some probios and some banamine. It's SO relieving to see her looking so spunky like she did when she first came out!

Thanks for all the advice and words of support!

It really made things a LOT easier!
