Oooo Lily is looking very close!! Sticky milk usually means that she could foal at any time - her udder could fill as she foals. I know you are exhausted (and frustrated LOL!!) but I wouldn't let up on the night watch if I were you - just in case!!

I am sooooooo frustrated LOL and very tired. but as im already paranoid about her having issues I know no matter how much I say im going to sleep i know i wont be able to. her milk is so thick that it moves very little if you tip the container...Oh Anna I hope she goes soon....im dying. Also slightly concerned cause I havent seen the baby moving in a few days now. At first I wasnt worried cause I had heard right before delivery they slow down but now its been a few days....fingers crossed!

Come on lilly you and snowball must be in cahoots! Lets go girls. Both tonight would be nice!
cassie she is usually bagged really good in the mornings. it usually only goes down a little during the day. It went down more today because she was out loose running with the bigger horses....right now its 10:37 pm and she is laid flat out....fingers crossed but Im just not seeing it for tonight

well i didnt know about the 1 drop test you guys use until i started this thread. I do have the mother natures mare foaling predictor kit. It takes likle 1/2 tsp to test so I havent used it to much. Last night the ph was in the 40% chance of foaling. I think im going to by the pool test stripes so I can actually read the ph level.

Ooooo she is looking very ready! Yeah! Come on girl!
Im waiting to see if her bag holds today....was kind of concerned about the purplish color at the bottom of her hooha but its since gone away. She laid alot lastnight so I think that may have been why the that area looked the way it did. I hope she does go today.
2minis4us you have no idea how I hope your right. i am worn out completely. I have been watching her since she was 300 days along...started checking every 2 hours just for safety sake....never thought she'd make it this long. We are at 347 I really pray she goes soon. Her bag seems to be holding so far. Ill check in a couple of hours. milk is the same yellowish very thick and sticky.

Her hooha has elongated more but I think her udder has gone down very slightly. I would do a check in a few hours to see if it has come back. I really don't think she will be long now
