Day 10 ( DOUBLE DIGITS - HAPPY DANCE- )


I shall let the video do the talking:
( Thank god for computer smart sisters i had no chance without her help)
( also excuse talking to both Bailey and Tess as if they are babies ;) )

^^^^^ WATCH^^^^^^ with sound so it makes sense :D

Im another lurker, who is on 'Tessy watch'. Love the video, what a fantastic temperament she has, she is gorgeous.

Cant be long now.

The one things that my mare did the week leading up to foaling on both occasions was that she became very loving and cuddly. Shes a sweet heart normally, but not one normally to come looking for cuddles. Then on the nights she has given birth, shes not been interested in me at all, and stands at the back of the stable giving me the 'go away' stare.

Come on baby T:D

Sorry TB but I think she'll feel a bit more uncomfy and behave a little more out of character when she is 24 hours away - the video IMVHO she looked a little too chilled to be going into labour shortly - still a couple of days away!

My best indicator was her bottom, when that went loose and slack within 12hrs little one was here. Under tail pics will help!
Mine at least was a sociable 9am Sunday foal!

I think she's laughing at us all in the last photo! I also don't think she's going to be foaling tomorrow now based on todays photos. Her belly still isn't right, it needs to go pointy first and it's still round. Well one things for sure, baby will come as and when baby is ready to come. It has to come out eventually :)

TB when Tessy has done her job you'll have to see about writing a book with all the tips from here and photos of her progress for everyone else who ends up with a BOGOF or who is a mini T fan!

You could even ask Hovis for some comments as his books have done so well

I'm sure there must be an orphan foal charity that would love the donations from a book as popular as miniT's would be!!

Oh my, I love your moustache Tess![/QUOTE]

The one thing she is still a nightmare with is scissors, clipers etc round her face you risk chopping off those rubbery lips if you go for the tash... horrible thing :eek::D

Tessy just looks so relaxed about the whole thing bless her.

Lovely pictures as usual :) I just showed them to a non horsey friend and he said she is gorgeous, as we all know :D I don't know anything about foaling (well I didn't before I read this thread - thanks guys :D ) so can't comment realistically but will guess at Tuesday morning. Now I'm excited that you are doing videos too :cool:

Did you get my foal guess a few pages back Abbie?

Another one been following this thread but I just cannot wait until Mini T arrives to post! Tess is beautiful and I luurve the little nicker she gives to you on the video.

Without wanting to sound patronising (and prob not succeeding :eek:) I am so impressed with the way you are handling this for your age. I think you would put alot of us <ahem> older HHO'ers to shame! x
