Opinions on if my mare is pregnant is appreciated

Here she is today sorry the udder pictures are fuzzy she is in a mood today she bit me on the butt and arm in the middle of getting that picture lol.

Is it just me or does it look like she has a bit more going on with her udder? Sorry you got bitten, it could be a good sign though that she is in foal. Personality changes can happen as they get closer to foaling. Fingers crossed!!!!!

It’s the simple things in her I have noticed that keeps me wondering. She only shakes her head now instead of her whole body, she is constantly biting at her belly, and her attitude has changed. Sorry the ground looks like I’ve been shaving her coat off it’s shedding time here lol.

There's plenty of edema in front of her udder, so she could possibly be pregnant.

Here were udders today she is getting more squirmy so the picture is really bad.

Are you still thinking she might be in foal?

I’m really not sure it looks like she may have dropped or she could just be getting fat. Here was her udders today

 

[Taz]

Does she pass the rib test? She doesn't look like she's very fat. Normally what's in front of her udder is either fat or edema. If it's fat she would be too. It looks like there might be more farther along her belly? If there is I'd say it has to be edema. Have you tried to get any fluid to test?

I tried to get fluid a while back but she buckled and was really nervous so I have been working to get her more comfortable so I will try again today.

Her udders look about the same, still edema in front of them. She looks a little wider in person but nothing crazy.

 

[Taz]

She looks about like my mare, a little more belly, who's less than a month from her breed date. If you haven't felt anything all you can do is watch her and guess. If she'll let you you can wrap your arms around her belly when she comes in to eat, you might feel something?

I am pretty positive I felt movement and when I would feel one side the other side would drop and she would be sticking out on that side and when I would feel the other side she would drop to the other side. I am starting to lean towards her being in foal.

These mares they, don’t know how much they drive us crazy sometimes lol

 

[Ryan Johnson]

Its her job , part of her being pregnant is to drive her owner crazy

 

[Taz]

Yay!!!! Are you going to join me as a sleep deprived crazy person?

 

[PaintMeAMini]

Yay!!!! Are you going to join me as a sleep deprived crazy person?

Sure am

 

[Taz]

Awesome!!

 

[PaintMeAMini]

I am not sure when she would have been bred and what month I would be expecting a foal if she is in foal. I know mares don’t really go by the book unfortunately but I wouldn’t mind having an estimate.

 

[PaintMeAMini]

Do y’all have any guesses on if she was in foal how far she would be?
