Keep an eye on her hooha cos blood stains can be a sign of placentitis

Both looking great, but I also think they have a little way to go yet - Diane it was Renee who said about the possibility of placentitis.

But I agree that I dont think that was causing the red streaks, still always something to be aware of and to watch for!
 
Yes girls, after what happened here I just wanted raine to be aware, one lost foal here due to placentitis is one too many and I still feel bad for not having suspected any problems.

Thanks Eagle and im sorry to hear about your foal you lost.. Pip gave me a scare last night I went out to feed them and instead of eating straight away like always she stayed in her stable ( i was feeding them hay outside altogether ) then she layed down legs out straight so i thought here we go but no back up again then down again then up and out she came to eat!!!! I kept a close eye on her all night but nothing happened..

I've been watching this girl for what seems like months because its her first and she is so small i dont want her to foal without me being there..One minute she looks really fat then she dosent, sometimes i even wonder if there's something still in there lol..

It wont be the first time ive watched a mare for months and she has ended up open !!!

Raine it wasn't my foal it was a mare on here that we were all following, the owner posted pics of her bloody show but we didn't know it was from an infection and unfortunately the foal was lost. My mare had a bloody show a few weeks before foaling, I cleaned her up and I didn't see it again but she then foaled 6 weeks early due to a poor placenta, luckily my vet was present at the birth and helped me with the foal, he was a dummy foal but he made it and is perfect now. So I guess I just am a bit nervy now about bloody shows

Love that first pic!

At a glance the first girl's udder seems very developed, both have good belly droop but neither have the classic "V" shape yet if they are the type to do so.

You're going to have some beautiful bubs soon.
 
Hi - great to hear from you again. Your girls are looking really good - not too far off foaling either from the look of them. You could always ask you vet to come and give them a checkover if you want, she wouldn't need to know any possible foaling dates, but if you really have no worries - just an interest in how much longer they have to go - then I would just be patient because no matter what a vet says, they will foal in their own good time!
