I used sucralfate for 5 days and backed her off of it gradually. It worked great. I had one vet say to gradually wean off and another tell me it wasn't necessary. So you pick! There is always another opinion. Sorry for the very late response but thought you might be gathering info for future...
OMG! I just saw this! Congratulations!!!!! So precious and I am so glad everything went well!!!!! Beautiful baby! Filly?? Please post more pics!
My mare still hanging in there at now 343 days. You have given me hope :)
I am at 340 days with my mare. Looks to be progressing about like yours. I am expecting at least another week. But watching on the camera every night! Yours looks to be a little ways off too. But who knows??

Has she been showing any signs of phase 1 (getting foal in place)? My mare has been rolling the last few days, rubbing her butt, tossing head, yawning, up and down and eating like a pig. I am a little worried but am giving her until tomorrow before I trailer her into the vet to have her...
Looks like your mare is right on the same schedule as mine. Cloudy milk this morning and not much of a bag. She has been irritated with biting, swishing, stomping, butt rubbing for now the 4th day. Poor baby, for both of our sakes, I hope it happens soon. Not getting much sleep! I have PH strips...
