The Tessy bear BOGOF thread

[morrismob]

Bet tessy waits for it to warm up. Nature very clever.

 

[Spring Feather]

The foal dictates the day it will be born. Tessy just has to go along with it; she can choose the time to foal down, but she has no control over the day

Not heard of deeping St Nicks ! We are Gedney Hill ironic really as there are no hills here

[ellie11987]

Nosey me just looked on a map and it's not far from you TessyBear. Real name 'Deeping St Nicholas', that ring any bells?

Anyway, where's that foalie?

 

[Racergirl]

Jemima, can you go over and give her a squeeze please?!

 

[Clannad48]

I've been watching this thread anxiously waiting for the announcement.... however, is it just me or is the forum running an hour late or has TFC not put the clocks forward.

Hurry up Tessy

 

[tessybear]

Evening all it's 7 degrees here

Day 8

Do you think Findus would be interested in a meal deal ? Two for the price of one ? Because today Tessy bear was in a paddy Yes that's right happy go lucky Tess was moody fo no apparant reason. Not nasty as she is never nasty but pulled some faces that could put halloween costumes to shame:

Well apart from being a little chimp Tess seemed to have bagged up more i will let you decide if that's wishful thinking or if she actually has started to bag up more :

Full body shot not much change from Yesterday on this front:

*Token happy picture *

Hope everyone is feeling well and has had a lovely day

[Shysmum]

Oh poor Tess - do you think the pressure of fame, AND having a foalie is getting to her

 

[TuscanBunnyGirl]

Crikey thats a big boy in there!

 

[tessybear]

Oh poor Tess - do you think the pressure of fame, AND having a foalie is getting to her

I think it's gone straight to her head she asked for filtered apple water today

Crikey thats a big boy in there!

Certainly is ! knowing our luck she was bred with some belgium warmblood

 

[Clannad48]

Lovely pics - mind you on looking at the last one my daughter desperately wants to know how you manage to keep your fingernails so long

 

[Polos Mum]

She has my sympathy, I'm heavily pregnant and it's really rubbish! You feel rubbish, you can't do anything you normally would and strange people keep looking at your bits !

And I'm not as close as (for my 50p's worth) she is !!

 

[Spring Feather]

Okay well after looking at todays photos I don't think she'll foal tomorrow morning. She still looks a few days away to me. I'll go for Monday morning she'll foal, now.

 

[tessybear]

Sorry has to fire up the iPod as hho on my laptop kept kicking me out but for my nails I use cheap body moistoiroser and rub into nails and alway use clear nail varnish to keep strong SF that will be 2 weeks so makes sense ! And polo I bet lugging a mini person about !

 

[Parachute]

Ah thank you lovely I think this weekend it must be soon ?

You're very welcome dear
It better be tomorrow

 

[TandD]

i was so sure it was going to be tonite! but i think there may be 2 or 3 days left yet...poor girl, she does look huge!

id get her tail plaited put! keeps it out of the way and keeps her cleaner and less for you to wash afterwards! (she has a lovely tail! - one thing about tb's..they have no tail!) and also when she does foal... if you catch her you can fold it up and put a tail bandage round dock and folded up end!

 

[Spring Feather]

SF that will be 2 weeks so makes sense !

Yeah I think your vet was pretty much spot on with dating her. The very first piccie you showed of Tessy I think was misleading us all with her markings and the way it was taken because she's never looked like that again in any of the later pictures. She's still round and although you can clearly see the foal has dropped it still doesn't look like it's in position to pop out right at this moment in time. Her teats are starting to expand a bit and her bag is getting a bit more full with each piccie so she is getting there slowly

 

[ludlow]

I haven't posted on this thread but have been obsessively following it daily for updates! I can't wait until the foal makes an appearance..very exciting times! I have no idea how you're managing to study and cope with the impending arrival...serious kudos to you! Best of luck x

 

[caitlineloise]

Not commented yet as more of a lurker with nothing helpful to add! But been following this from the start! How exciting it is!
My guess is a piebald colt, more white than black!!
Would add numerous smilies but on my phone, good look T and Abbie

 

[cheeryplatypus]

Tonight?
Hope so

 

[HBM1]

That's quite a bag she has going there - I am going to guess for tomorrow night....

 

[rainer]

C'mon mini T tonight pleeeeeaaaaassssseeee!!!!

 

[OldNag]

Goodness poor Tessybear must be fed up by now. I was a week late with my first and can remember feeling HUGE and so uncomfortable.
Come on foalie x
