Mindy's Unexpected Baybee Boy

[Lisa-Ruff N Tuff Minis]

I am so sorry for your loss. I know how hard it is. I truly don't think your being there would have made any difference at all. This foal just does not look like it would have been viable. I have had the placenta come out along with the foal a few times at normal full term births so i am not sure if that has anything to do with the cord being twisted. I know it is hard to not have the answer - sometimes the not knowing why is almost as hard as dealing with the loss itself.

Oh this is so sad...I am so very sorry for your loss.

What a beautiful delicate little angel.

 

[FoRebel]

So sorry for the loss! He looks like he would've been a beautiful boy. HUGS to you and Mindy...

 

[nootka]

to me, he looks early. For this time of year, his coat would have been thicker and mane and tail more developed.

I think something may have happened to the poor little guy before he could even be born. I know how you're feeling. My first was 4 years ago almost exactly. I still think about him often.

My thoughts are with you....

I'm soooo sorry for you and your mare. It's a heartbreaking loss. :no: He was obviously beautiful.

 

[Frankie]

I don't see any real, outward problems. He just must of been too early.

I am so sorry for your loss.

Oh I am so sorry for your loss.

This year one of my fillies was being born, and I found the umbilical cord wrapped around her chest and legs several rotations. I pulled her out FAST and thank God she did make it.

I'm so sorry for your loss, but I agree it was early, and there is no way you could have prevented or done anything different once she started to deliver. I hope mom is ok.

Thanks you guys! I am feeling much better today. I plan to spend some quality time with mom this afternoon and then move her in with my yearling fillies. I have needed to do some moving around anyway. The fillies will maybe keep her mind of the babies, she can still mother by baby sitting. I feel so rotten for her as she just stood there over her baby. I hope she didn't bag over night, I don't want her uncomfortable. The one thing that breaks my heart is that Baybee was my dream color. I have wanted a real bay mini forever Now I have him in my heart. I do have a bay (hopefully appy, if I ever get brave enough to clip) and a silver bay pinto, but I just love a real bay

Thanks for all your words of kindess, now I will pass them onto Mindy!
