Is my mare pregnant???

[Ameliarose9]

My mare ran with the stallion for around 6 months in total from may 2018 to October 2018 so we are unaware of when she caught or if she even did. She did show signs of getting bigger but she isn't huge, she constantly has veins up her back legs and around her tummy and developed two lumps (bags) either side in front of her teats around three months ago. She is a maiden mare and has never had any of these signs before. Just wanted to know if these were normal pregnancy symptoms.

Has your vet examined her??

the only other way to tell would be to consult a crystal ball!

The only way to know is to get a vet out

 

[Ameliarose9]

Thank you I will get in contact with the vet

She has actually just had some sticky clear/orange discharge from her back end.... not sure if this means anything?

Crazy as it sounds... I did 2 human pregnancy tests on my mare a few years ago... Both Came out positive, and she was in foal... I also tested a friend's mare who definitely wasn't pregnant and hers was negative... So I belive the tests work... I only used a cheap one!!

yes I always use n=3 as my benchmark for whether something works or not.
