Missy's Foalwatch Thread

Still no baby and no sign of anything really. She is still as active as ever!

No sign of baby. She isn't even slackening off from behind, bag seems to come and go. She had a manic gallop yesterday and this morning bag has gone. Baby had a little dance this morning so all is well. Just wish he'd hurry up! I'm giving her until the end of April! Haha :o

And we got another almighty kick tonight :biggrin3:
Also, I muddled the dates up. I'm 21 days ahead from where she should be. So she's actually 336 days now :o

Sorry for the late reply guys, been busy at home and completely forgot to update.
This week Missy has taken to the art of scratching her bum continuously on everything she can find as well as rolling at every opportunity in the sand school and field.

Was plaiting her tail and got a lovely kick in her bum again and then a lot of dancing in her belly, followed by a big sigh from Moo. Have also bought some milk testing strips but they don't arrive until Thurs-Sat and she may have surprised us by then.

Placing bets on an Easter baby - So, by this weekend. But as we all know, she may hang on as long as possible.
Taken each day as a day closer to his arrival!! :biggrin3:

Is it my imagination or has the bump dropped? She definitely looks a different shape to me....hold onto your hats...she could be in business soon :)

I was thinking the same but didn't want to tempt fate! Still very active so don't think it'll be for at least another week, plus she hasn't even started waxing or lactating yet, I have been advised to watch her like a hawk though from now on!
 
Baby does go quiet for a day or so before birth, almost like they know they have to save their strength for birth.

Foo foo's looking a bit different today as well.

Good luck GP ! XXXX
 
I will probably be proved totally wrong but in the pics she hasn't got much of an udder. When my mare foaled I thought she had an udder but when she was ready to go it was just one big round blob.
Best of luck.
 
Her being active doesn't mean the baby isn't almost here, My mare was a she devil the day before and the day of foaling. 2 hours before giving birth i has been the only time i couldn't catch her. the rolling and rubbing is probs her getting baby in right place. i wouldn't be at all surprised on and easter foal. :D then you can call it E.B. short for easter bunny like in the movie 'Hop'
 
Brief update: Missy is very restless. Has barely touched her hay. Bum scratching, flicking her tail and kicking her belly at the same time. Is also doing a lot of yawning and licking/chewing. She's 340 days now. Keeping a close eye!!

Oh no . . . I'm not falling for this . . . the amount of times we were convinced that Tessy was about to foal, only to be disappointed are numberless . . . I think Missy is just having us all on ;).

P
 
I dont think I have looked at so many pictures of boobies and foo foos in all my life as I have in keeping tabs on missy's thread...
 
I remember it being this time last year with Tessy, waking up at silly o'clock after coming home from the hospital and checking all the time! Come on, Missy! Give us a cute foal!
