And yet, still waiting. 319 days today. She's probably waiting for the stormy weather predicted for later this week. I won't know whether to run to the barn or run to my storm shelter!
Just Magic has a full, firm udder this morning. Now, to see if it stays that way through the day, or goes down. It shouldn't be a whole lot longer now.
Wow, the pictures of the udder changes is great! This thread is helpful for me dealing with my first maiden mare (Snowball). She has just began to bag up, so hopefully she progresses like that! Thanks for posting those!
I thought Just Magic's udder was full yesterday, but it's even more so this morning. It went down some yesterday during the day, but reappeared bigger yet overnight. So, another day of watching and waiting to see what she does. She's 321 days today.
Still no exciting news. I was hoping for significant progress today from her udder this morning, but it's gone down some this afternoon. And so I wait......
She's waiting until we have some really stormy weather predicted this weekend, I just know it.
She's leaking a little milk this morning as one teat had a bit of 'crust' on the end. Her udder is really full, but I expect it to tighten before foaling. I'll take a picture of it this morning before I turn her out. So, she's still getting closer.....
