Poor Melinda, what a stuggle to get that little one out.........she hung right in there and kept trying. I don't have any experience with foaling but perhaps the foal's back leg was hung up??? Oh please let the Momma and baby be ok!!!!!!!! The cam went dark right after she got the baby out........more prayers..........

 

[Ryan Johnson]

Yeah I cant connect either Mistysmom. Hoping everythings ok

hats off to Melinda for staying so calm

 

[misty'smom]

I don't think it is the Mare Stare connection I can see the other 2 cams from Pacific Pintos and Flying G Farm.........oh my please let them be ok and Melinda too. I could never, ever do what she does I am too emotional!!!!! Praying again

 

[misty'smom]

Need to take a break to take my doggies out.........I hope to see good news when I come back.........

 

[misty'smom]

Just came back..... Melinda's cam is back up......Chippy is up and walking around, Melinda was trying to get foal up on his/her feet......wiggly little baby!!! I pray the foal is just exhausted from the birth

!! I hope those little legs get stronger by the minute!!! Chippy, Melinda and little foal worked too hard to get into this world!!!!!!!!

 

[misty'smom]

Looking better.......woobly but standing, hoping that is a good sign!!! Melinda is a real blessing and has such a way with her minis!!!!!! She has remained so calm tonight and knows just what to do, this Momma and foal are very lucky they live at her farm!!!!!!!

 

[Ryan Johnson]

I think little one is having trouble nursing , I think Melinda is milking chippy now.

 

[misty'smom]

I have seen this happen before and by the next day the foal is nursing ok.......could the little one just be tired out? especially after such a difficult time?? The foal appears to look ok, what do you think Ryan??? Melinda must be tired out!!

 

[Kim P]

Oh goodness! I hope everything is okay! I was so scared when Annabelle got sick. Will be saying big prayers for them!

 

[maplehollow]

Baby is still not out of the woods. ...was bad presentation and cut off the umbilical during delivery, wasnt breathing when born. ..had to breathe for her for about 20 min ... Really disoriented yet so hoping she will be ok. Chippy seems to be ok other than normal cramping and I'm super rattled and taking a 5 min break ....

Melinda

 

[misty'smom]

Oh Melinda so sorry this has been a difficult one......you were wonderful and did an amazing job bringing this little girl into the world..... I am praying for her and you and Chippy

If someone can keep an eye on them for a bit, I really need to go warm up! Just let me know if they move around at all, right now both are resting. Thanks!!!!
