Update, for those who are interested

QB where are you?? do we have a baby yet????:D

Hi Guys, really sorry not been on here, no foal yet, been playing up the yard today and kept getting delayed from leaving, as a result I am shattered! AGAIN!


No major changes she is still really really tired, the second she comes in and eats her tea. I think her udder is a bit bigger (more distended) but no bagging up still. Possibly her bum is a little more scrawny looking too. Don't think we will have anything tonight. we are 343 days tomorrow :D YO is checking her at 11.30 for me so I can nap a bit longer, didn't fancy caravan tonight so came home. Her old owners came up to see her today but I think she was a little overwhelmed with so many people in her field because she popped the electric fence and ran off down the other end of the field with ben :eek: could have swung for her because as soon as they left she came creeping up to the fence for mummy cuddles and went to the gate to be let into her paddock again! Anyhow, all pretty quiet on the whole today. will update with pictures tomorrow X
 
thanks for the update QB, was starting to wonder if you were up to your elbows in latex gloves or something:eek::D
could you have a quiet word with Ebony and ask her to produce before the weekend as i go away then , don't know if there's internet access or not:eek:;)

No baby yet :D Thank you all for your well wishing :D

OMG Ibble, thats serious deprivation there! :D No foal this morning but had a peek and her teets are relaxed, a bit more fleshy and not so wrinkled, she was quite messy last night and lay down again, also her vulva was not tight this morning, of late it has been relaxed when she comes in and tight again in the morning, she is out in the field at the moment and Im in having coffee with YO and writing you this update. Probably plugging in the caravan tonight, will be starting my vigil proper and sitting there with my gloves, iodine and pot of waxed dental floss at the ready LOL :D:D Have camera so will take some pics later when she comes in so you can see the changes. She ate quite a lot of hay last night aswell and is currently happily grazing in her field. :D
 
P.S. just saw we have gone over 16'000 views :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek::eek: :eek::eek: :eek:

*aren't we all a bit obsessive :D*

Thank you all so much for all your interest in our journey, I have said it before but feel I need to say it again, it is really amazing how you are all loving this as much as we are here :D

She would love it Fiona, :D:D If I'd known there would be so much interest I would have rigged up a live stream cctv for everyone. :( Could have sold subscriptions to it! :D


Ibble, I agree, christmas is going to be sooo boring in comparison. Perhaps if its a colt, we should call it 'the new messiah!'


P.S. everyone Ebony says 'hi' X
 
I once heard James Herriot in an interview saying that he'd tried to keep his identity and location secret. But eventually, he'd go out to help a cow with a difficult calfing in a field way up on the moors, and a coach-load of tourists with cameras would arrive.

So don't be surprised!
 
The suspense is killing me I want to come take pics of babies!!! Hopefully see you and the madam next week :D

Can't wait hun xx Will be lovely to catch up, I know the beastie ben and ebony will love to c you for cuddles and pic's xx

The first thing I think about when I get up in the morning is has Ebony had a baby yet so I'm definately obsessed!

Ohhhh you've got it bad hun, have you talked to your doctor about it? :D:D

I think that if I had got CCTV there would probably be a lot of broken relationships by now! LOL!

*Whispers: Ebony's thread only has 4 stars, I feel sure that Ebony is worth 5 stars don't you? :D :D*

Well, anyone can come, but they have to turn up on cammels, there is a star in the sky they can follow, but frankinsence and myrrh won't get you a viewing, only gold, carrots and sweedes ;) lol x
 
No changes to report yet. I can't upload my pictures to my computer because I took them to the camera and not the memory card (I left it behind in the computer!) and I can't find the sodding cable although no real changes still. Come on though, she was never really going to pop one out on the golden 'predicted date' was she. Awkward little mare!

Oh and bens bum has GROWN! I popped him in tonight and its soooo much higher than hers! When the hell did that happen?! He is bum high again now, he is 15.2 at the withers so will have to measure him when they shoot up. Wooo hoo!! :D:D
