The Tessy bear BOGOF thread

Tessy says..

I won't have the foal while you're all still looking,
It's not a performance, there is no booking,
It's no good checking in hour by hour,
And by the way..WHERE'S MY BABY SHOWER????

I'm feeling really sorry for my girl - she's starting to struggle getting up from rolling and on Sunday when I went to get her in she was lying down, when she got up she wouldn't use her back leg that she had been lying on. Gradually improved over 5-10 minutes or so till she was back to normal - my best guess is her leg went to sleep and she had pins and needles from all the weight! Poor things! :p:p

Ah bless her ! I cannot wait to see pictures of her foal :), you have to feel sorry for them waddling about the place :p
 
You'll be sick of the pics by the time I'm done.

This is her about 2 weeks ago

Thank you - she's my baby!. Oh yeh there's definately a sprog in there! Her whole belly is really tight as well and I don't know if I'm imagining it or not but I think her butt's beginning to slacken off although no-where near as much as tessy's has. She has prob another 3-4 weeks to go.

ha ha! poor lady! All the preggo warmblood at work wants to do is sleep flat out :D


ETA: Just seen your recent post-the warmblood at work has at least 4 more weeks and she is starting to bag up very slightly and her bottom muscles are slacking off

She's been developing her udders for a good few weeks now - her offical due date is May 15th, vet reckoned May 4th when he examined about 2 months ago and my sister reckons she'll go before the end of April - personally I think she'll not go in april but am hoping she's nice and early in may :D

That's amused me, 15th of May is my 13.3 welsh mares birthday, and the 4th of may is my one year owniversary of my 14.3 welsh mare :D:D:D Perhaps it'll be one of those dates :p The foaling date of my 14.3 however just says 'May' so I suppose her birthday can be the first :p

If it's May 4th you'll have to choose a star wars-related name :p

Thats what my sister wants but it's named already - posh name of either Miracle or Mount Miracle (sire is Mount Holly) and Miracle because it's a miracle the foal survived (mare choked/aspiration pneumonia/nearly died when 20 days pregnant).
Stable name of either Milly or Milo depending on mare/colt.
Not that I've been thinking about a lot :D:p:D
 
I purposely didn't check in till now hoping I would have a "Tessybears foalie" thread to look at!:( come on girl you've got most of the uk and prop the worlds Hho population waiting on you!:D
 
On phone so can't quote but the rude and naughty me would have gone for a cover photo of either A boob or vulva pic!
Yours is most defiantly less vulgar and appropriate to hand down the generations though!
Absolutely love it, should get it printed and framed for Abbie to remember this extra special time... Not that she will have an easy time forgetting even if she wished!
 
Also on phone (for final late night check in!) and also can't quote- that is absolutely brilliant Strawbz!!

Oh, and... Wot? Still no Mini T?!

*flounces off in a huff and vows not to check this thread for three days at least..*

Night all, see you in the morning!! ;)

P.S. is anything else interesting happening on HHO? I've been busy riding and working late today so haven't looked at anything other than this thread all day!!
 
I have been travelling for the last 24 hrs all the way to the USA to visit my sister. I was sure that after all that I would check in here and find that Tess had had her foal. But no.
