I was a very good mare watcher and took you all some lovely photos... and then the forum was grumpy and wouldn't let me upload them! So let's try again.

aw too cute. Hope we see some babies soon!

We better! I'm at that wonderful stage of zombie like state where I keep dreaming I've heard the alarm so I wake up. Thankfully my alarm box has a little light that goes on if it's been set off so I quickly realise it was all a dream and can go back to sleep without trekking into the dark!

I still get a cold sweat when I hear that noise. Detective Barnaby's inlaws had a metal detector on Midsomer Murders the other night, which when hovering around metal made the exact same loud bellow. I almost had a heartattack and my body went into 'flight mode'

You know you might be somewhat over it when the alarm goes off in the middle of the worst rain of the day and you consider sitting down and crying to see if that convinces the mares to play nice and give up those foals

I'm at the point now that if the alarm goes off and I'm asleep I find myself halfway out of the house before the rest of my brain wakes up, it's that ingrained now!

My brother discovered that the stud wall/support wall finder thingy (technical name I'm sure) makes a similar beep to my foaling alarm. He's not mean enough to do this during foaling season but he loves waiting until I've just packed the alarm away and THEN firing it off to see how far I get through the run outside routine before I stop and decide to kill him instead. He did it in the middle of winter once and I STILL reacted!

 

[countrymini]

haha, big meanie he is!

 

You two! I'm enjoying a good laugh!!

The pictures are wonderful!! They look sooooooo good, and makes me even more excited after seeing them! Come on (most) ladies! Can't wait to ooooo and ahhhhhh!!

Good lord.....huge belly wide load alert!! You must be exhausted Bree!!

 

[AnnaC]

Heidi, great to see you again!! We need you here now to help Bree to get through this Zombie time of hers - as you an see from the few latest posts she is pretty far gone already. LOL!!

Goodness Bree those two girls - Ashanti and She-who-will-not-be-named - look as though the babies are going to drop out straight down if they dont hurry up and produce them the normal way!! Little Twinkle is looking good too.

As for 'false' alarms, I remember so many times deaming that I had assisted at a birth, only to find that the mare was still pregnant when I actually woke up - very frustrating!

 

[Wings]

I'm in full blown Zombie mode by now, up early again today because the last false alarm was an hour out from typical Hansel wakeup and toilet time.... so he wanted to start the day early since I was already up

Don't tell her I said so!

 

[countrymini]

How's Mrs Voldermort dropped that baby overnight Bree?

Me, too. Looks like she swallowed a watermelon. So cute, wish mine would have looked like this this summer, instead mine were just fat.

She-Who-Will-Not-Be-Named doesn't do things by halves so when we get a baby belly we get a BIG BABY BELLY

:rofl

Some how she's managed to put some MORE milk in her already full udder. She's filled her teats this time so I'm living in hope that a baby isn't far off. We're all amazed she's held off this long!

Ashanti has a pretty decent udder growing by her standards, I'm hoping she won't be far behind She-Who-Will-Not-Be-Named so I can have a break before Twinkles is ready.

 

Well don't tell her, but we are excitedly waiting for the announcement! SSsssshhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh................

 

[chandab]

I shouldn't say this but... She's waiting for her girlfriends to catch up, so they can have a big birthday party together.

 

[AnnaC]

How's she looking today - any chance of a Happy Event announcement??????????

 

[Wings]

Happy Event announcement? You mean like....

THIS ONE!
