Hi Anna

ok everyone I am off for the night.

its Downton Abbey night. tonight and I have to go home feed the horses then go out to my friends house to watch the next two episodes yippee!!

 

[AnnaC]

Hi Cassie - have a good evening!!

Laney now down the far end of her pen so cant quite see what she's up to - may be butt rubbing, also thought I saw her pawing the ground? Will keep watching for another 20 minutes, then I have to go do my boys.

 

[AnnaC]

No problem - she's back up and snoozing quietly just outside her stall.

7.00 am the sun is up and Laney is having breakfast

Cassie how mean of you to tell me that you are off to watch Downtown Abbey

 

[MeganH]

Thank you, ladies!

Day 333 and Laney filled her udder more last night

 

[MeganH]

Thank you! I feel like my congestion is breaking up... so I should be feeling better soon.

I don't know if there was something on the other side of the fence earlier or if all the birds that are out this morning keep getting attention but I saw her with her head up high and alert looking around a few times looking interested in something.

It is supposed to rain a bit tonight, tomorrow and Friday.. wondering what she is planning on doing.

 

[MeganH]

Laney is in the small grassy paddock this afternoon. She had several big cow patties I cleaned up- nothing solid.

edit- She has also been scratching and rubbing her bum this morning and just got done rolling out in the paddock which I have never seen her do. I think she just likes to keep me on my toes lol

 

[Sandy B]

She is getting all her ducks lined up in a row and I do believe these mommas-to-be love all the attention they get!

 

[MeganH]

Yea it looks like her belly is shifting. She had that nice 'V' then last week she got kind of lost it and looked round.. now it seems like things are changing again. Her hips seem further apart and she walks stiff and wide in her hind legs.

Laney has shown so many signs and looked good then keeps us waiting.. she has to go soon though. She's in the final stretch.

Still has very mushy poop and had a HUGE pile of mush in her pen when I was just out there. She's had mushy poo on and off for a little while though.

I was thinking today.. I am so used to checking her and how things have been for months. Soon there will be a little foal and it's going to be a big change. I have gotten into the routine and you kind of forget what is to come. I can't wait much longer.. lol

Cassie how mean of you to tell me that you are off to watch Downtown Abbey

hehehehehe. sorry Renee, I won't spoil it except to say that we watched THREE EPISODES LAST NIGHT!!!! we couldn't stop watching it!! lol oh my goodness! three of the BEST episodes EVER!!!!!!!! AHHHH it is now under lock and key until next week so I don't get tempted to watch it!! I'm sad though we only have three more to go

. At least The Titanic series which is by the same people should be starting just after we finish it... hopefully anyway.

wow that udder is looking so very good! won't be long now!!! good girl Laney!!

haha I was the same with Suzie towards the end... didn't really know what to expect after spending so much time watching her be pregnant... what I would actually get LOL mares!

glad your feeling a ltitle better

she has got that V back very nicely and has dropped down on the sides.... lets go Laney Lets go!!

 

[MeganH]

I know you focus so much on the pregnancy and signs you get used to it. That will change soon

My hubby took off work tomorrow to try to get better. My daughter is sick now, and we think her and my hubby are getting pink eye on top of the sinus stuff. Fun fun fun in this house right now lol. Thankfully I am not feeling as bad tonight so I think I got past the worst of it.

There is such beautiful lighting on the cam right now.. Laney should just drop and foal

 

[cassie]

oh good idea, he needs all the rest he can get! naw you poor things!! get better!!!!

yes it is lovely lighting. and she is standing funny LOL

gosh I can see the foal moving LOL

 

[StarRidgeAcres]

Megan, I don't post a lot, but I'm watching. And thanks for posting her full body shots...she's beautiful!!! I think they are just like many human mommy's to be, in that they always look so full of life and beautiful when pregnant!

And I'm glad you're starting to feel better. There's nothing worse than feeling like crap and also not getting sleep because of the mares. Just makes the stress that much worse. Hang in there sweetie. Hugs to you!

 

[MeganH]

Thank you Cassie and Parmela!

I am getting excited !

Laney's hooha is relaxed and she cannot clinch it at all. I tried to make her (which is usually easy) but not matter what I did it did not move at all. I tried to take a photo of the inside but I couldn't hold her tail and open it and hold the camera at the same time lol. Here is is tonight.

And here is her udder

And here is her from the side.. not sure how she is doing here but I think she may be on the right track.

 

[MeganH]

So how is her belly looking? I still haven't figured if I can tell the whole 'forward' move yet?

 

[MeganH]

It is raining right now and Laney is being SUCH a good girl and is staying under her shelter. SO proud! lol

My husband definitely has pink eye.. yay. Cheyenne went to bed and I had to clean her eyes several times because they were gooky so I will probably be calling the dr in the morning to get her something for it.

I need to get to sleep. Laney is being good and is parked in the shelter now but if she happens to go down and look foalish outside please let me know since it is wet and rainy.

Goodnight/day!

Hi Megan Havent posted but have been watching looking good hope Laney gives up that baby soon...........

 

[cassie]

yeah I agree with Diane, everything is looking ready steady, almost go! lol give her a few more days... maybe only one or maybe three

but she looks really good and is being so good and standing under her shelter!! big pats Laney GOOD GIRL!

I have noticed she hasn't been lying down much at all, which is genereally another sign they are getting close. won't be long now! thats for sure!!

 

[Eagle]
