Maresysteria!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Maresysteria – A medical condition of horse people cause my countless hours of mare stare.

Symptoms may include countless sleepless night, patience’s may smell of a barn, person(s) getting excited over equine “cow patties”, seeing mare foaling sighs that don’t really exist, repeatedly saying, “I think tonight’s the night”...every night, and just plain old craziness.

Its official I have Maresysteria so I need your help. The first photo was taken march 24th and the second was taken today. Is it me or is her belly dropped into a bit more of a “v” towards he back end?

THANKS!!

Baby has definitely dropped, but I bet you notice the point of the "v" shifts toward the front more before she foals.

I always like to share these pics when someone asks about the "v"

Couple days before:

Few hours before she foaled:

as you can see she was absolutely miserable! lol

This is a good picture of a V shape, a couple of years ago.

All pictures taken the day before she foaled.

Here is another mare of ours, that showed, these signs 24 hours before foaling.

Wax 24 hours before foaling.

Awesome pics guys! Thanks so much! I'm so bummed that she didn't pop last night cause I'm leaving for Dominican tonight and will most likely miss it. I don't think she will go another week. She is in great care, but I wish I could be here when this muchkin arrives.

Last night while she ate her dinner if I pushed in above her flanks I could feel the baby rolling and pushing back! So cool!

I'm also happy that our mare seems just happy as can be!
