[Singing Dawg]

Has she any wax on her teats? Won't foal till that happens i don't think.

Some do, some don't!

 

[Bedlam]

Bless you - what a lovely video.

I hope you have a foal tonight and that it goes well. My mare is holding on at 345 days now so I'm on foal watch too....but at least I've known from the start!

Best of luck for the foaling and for your theory test. xxx

 

[BlairandAzria]

Ah what a lovely video,

 

[Shysmum]

Thank You Abbie xxx

 

[Racergirl]

I'm sure your theory test will be fine! As I recall, the questions were things like "What do you do if you encounter a horse and rider on the road?"

A. Pass wide and slow
B. Beep your horn and shout obscene things out the window
C. Run them over
D. Turn around and drive in the opposite direction

C, definately

 

[Thistle]

Bedlam, let's hope Portia knows that the weather is improving too, they could be twins!

Abbie, you mention a red goo, has she lost the mucus plug do you think. It will prob be a sticky gooey patch in her tail. The red goo is prob some of it breaking up. Not all mares wax up, some have huge drippy candles, some run milk and others don't do anything until foal is here.

That would be ace to see them both and compare pictures

I'm not sure she has been out all day but i didn't see anything however there was like a redish goo discharge from the bottom of her vulva

 

[ralph and maverick]

Good luck for tomorrow's theory test.
Just love the video, she's a real lovely mare!
Feeling very excited!! x

 

[tessybear]

Rightyo folks i am off for tonight will do my final check then mum takes over. If foal is here i will update before my theory exam.

Na'Night

[ridefast]

Never heard of padding their feet before, is it because she still has shoes on? Always had them removed at studs I've been on

 

[tessybear]

She has her fronts on yes spoke to vet who said padded will be suitable

 

[Buds_mum]

Love the vids Abbie, my mum commented on what a sensible head you have on your shoulders. You are coping like a trooper with so much going on.
She also loves tessy and wants her little wriggler I said we might have a fight to have ownership of the h + h forums biggest celebrity hehe.

Good luck for your theory test, you will fly it promise.

I am putting money on a foalie tonight she looks ready set!

Lots of hugs xxxx

 

[Mongoose11]

Lots of luck to Tess tonight, I think she will do it all on her own and wonder what you are fussing about when you rush down there in the morning.

I hope foalie baby comes safe and sound and that they are both napping together by the time the birdsong starts in the morning.

 

[Coblover63]

Gosh, all the signs have gone off the scale tonight!!! I'm so excited now, I don't think I'll be able to sleep I normally switch my phone off overnight but I might just keep it beside the bed so I can check through the night!

Good luck Abbie and Tessy!!!!

 

[OldNag]

This is getting soooo exciting! I am also of the camp "it's going to happen tonight" (even though I know diddlysquat about foaling).

Good luck TB!

 

[Ladyinred]

So wish I hadn't read the latest updates. Not going to sleep now for wondering

Bet you have a gorgeous Mini-T by morning, hope you get to see, makes me cry every time I see a foal born, and I have seen a few lol.

 

[Shanny_mare]

I was supposed to be going to bed an hour ago but keep hanging on waiting for more updates
Dog is snoring her head off, waiting to go to bed properly!

Hope you have a lovely foal in the morning x

 

[ridefast]

Well I've managed to remain calm about this for ages but I'm getting quite excited now! Come on Tessy!

 

[rainer]

Fingers crossed for mini t to be here by morning
Will be checking regularly
Good luck with ur theory tomorrow abbie x

 

[Nicnac]

Gosh - how fantastic to see Mini T moving around like that on your lovely vid.

He wants out!

Tessybear being her usual chilled self - FOOD

Hope it all goes well and good luck for your theory test. You do like to pack it all in don't you!

 

[Liath]

Bless you Abbie! I've had a really ****** (literally!!) day at work, didn't get home til 10 and just caught up here... Seeing the gorgeous Tessybear an hearing your (unnecessary but appreciated!) 'Thank you' melted away the stress of my day (and made me cry a little bit!!) so thank YOU!!

I'm another who knows jack **** about foaling, but is pretty sure there will be a Mini T appearing overnight! *squeeeeeee*

Oh, and good luck with your theory test- not that you'll need it, as 'sorted' as you appear to be (damn you, I'm twice your age and half as sorted!) you'll fly through it! C x x

 

[HollyWoozle]

Forcing myself to put down the phone and sleep!

 

[Shanny_mare]

I'm going to bed now - honestly I am, honest!!

Good luck TB

Day 13

2nd Video of Tess
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cMiq5I8ZnkM&feature=youtu.be

and thank you messages from me

I've not followed this thread (as I can't keep up with the fast moving ones!) but I've just clicked on it and scrolled to to your video post. You sound like quite a remarkable and mature young lady to be so cool and calm in this situation, (and I really hope that doesn't sound patronising, as it was not at all intended to be.)

I'm now going to be following for sure as I can't wait to see mini T!

Best of luck with your test tomorrow x

Day 13

2nd Video of Tess
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cMiq5I8ZnkM&feature=youtu.be

and thank you messages from me

Aw what a great video, and you are very welcome

So what I see, well there is a real difference in her today. She's gone ribby which is often a good sign, her vulva has gone deep red, her bag has filled up nicely and it looks like her milk glands are really full under her belly. Her teats are getting there but I don't usually pay a whole load of attention to them at this late stage as they can fill up pretty much right up to within minutes of foaling. She is VERY close judging from what I saw on your video and I wouldn't be surprised if she does foal tonight or tomorrow morning.

VERY best of luck to you, I don't even like cobs but I'm so looking forward to seeing this foal

 

[Ebenezer_Scrooge]

Morning! Just checking in. Good luck with your theory test TessyBear

 

[PolarSkye]

Good luck today Abbie . . . we're off out for the day and will be thinking of you and TB all day .

[Buds_mum]
