It's almost 5 am here and i've had a lovely sleep and my throat feels oh so much better. Thank you thank you girls. So, I guess last night was mostly uneventful huh?
Four mares up on cam now

Hi Amanda, the girls were quiet and as Cassie said I didn't see LB go down tonight which is the only difference

Ahh, then LB will likely go tonight. She always stands the whole night before she foals. I'm telling you, it's going to be insane tonight. So happy that I had a nice long sleep tonight. You guys are my saviours.
Renee. No I have not. My girls have always gone with full udders and milk that is at least oily and thick. Most of mine even make it to the white milk stage right before they go. We are textbook readers here.

Morning! Udders are nice and big. And LB's milk is changing a bit. INstead of the first nonfoaling colour she is testing at the second one. One more step and she'd be a foaling range. So that is good news. The girls are at days 320-334 today. tonight and tomorrow night should be very interesting.

Sorry guys, I turned them out for a few hours and turned the cameras off. My bad. I should have left the cams on so you can see that they are out. I'll put them in around lunch time probably.

\put them in for a couple hours so little Charming could lay down and sleep. He can't sleep out htere in the mud/snow. but it was so nice I decided they needed to go out again. So they are out until around suppertime when they'll come in for good. All the girls nipples are filling and I can get a sample of milk from everyone now, but no one is testing close to foaling yet. Sigh, we may not get a baby this weekend afterall. Mind you anything can happen in 24 hours. I'm keeping my fingers crossed. I've had 2 naps today just in case tonight is the night.

Well I've put them in for the night. All udders are bigger this evening than they were this morning, which is a good sign.
Here are their pics

Well, here we are. It is Sunday and no more babies.
The girls udders are all nice and full and firm, their vulvas are loose and hanging and deeply coloured. Their bums are jello-ish. There's nothing left to do but make some nice oily, sticky yellow thick milk. And there's no sign of that going on as of 8 this morning. there is a chance someone will do something over the day today and I MIGHT get a baby yet tonight. But my hopes of that are not as high as they were on Friday. Oh well, the little ones will arrive when they are ready and it is only getting nicer out as spring arrives, so I guess it's all good. Patience was never my biggest virtue.
On an interesting sidebar, Nellie yawned 10 times at me this morning, which usually means stage one is beginning, but not sure with her as her milk is not saying the same thing.
I'll be checking them every few hours today to see if there are any changes.
