Murphy is doing really well. Seems to be very happy, not in much pain if any at all. I'm very pleased so far
Here are some pictures of Mary from this morning. Let's see what you think!
They aren't the best pictures but there ya go!
I just tested her pH again with the pool strips and when I went to get a sample, it squirted out everywhere! It is getting stickier too.
Still testing a 7.2 on the pool strips, I'm not relying on that number but I am going to use them and hope they will show a drop- regardless of the number, if it shows a drop in pH I will be expecting something!
Sorry to keep everyone waiting! I fell asleep at like 3 am with my phone and computer both on and logged into the forum and didn't realize until just now! So I haven't actually been on here the whole time!
I checked on Mary every half hour last night- nothing to report.
And yes, I had plenty of blankets! I saw that it was going to be colder tonight, so I stocked up and even bought a new sleeping bag to stay warm! Haha
This foal is going to cost me thousands by the time it is born haha
Well Mary seems to be progressing in every way except pH and hooha. I just don't know what to say or do, besides wait! Haha
Here are some pics from just now.
She won't stand straight enough for a picture from behind, she keeps favoring one hind leg so her belly is all lopsided looking.
I think I will use my last foaltime strip late tonight and update you all of course.
After that I'll have to rely on the pool strips to show me the drop.
Tonight would be a great night to foal- give the baby one day of nice weather before it gets to meet the Oregon rains it will have to deal with forever.
I'm really hoping Mary catches up to Margarita, but I'm doubtful at this point.
