It’s the simple things in her I have noticed that keeps me wondering. She only shakes her head now instead of her whole body, she is constantly biting at her belly, and her attitude has changed. Sorry the ground looks like I’ve been shaving her coat off it’s shedding time here lol.

Are you still thinking she might be in foal?
I’m really not sure it looks like she may have dropped or she could just be getting fat. Here was her udders today

Does she pass the rib test? She doesn't look like she's very fat. Normally what's in front of her udder is either fat or edema. If it's fat she would be too. It looks like there might be more farther along her belly? If there is I'd say it has to be edema. Have you tried to get any fluid to test?

I tried to get fluid a while back but she buckled and was really nervous so I have been working to get her more comfortable so I will try again today.
 
Her udders look about the same, still edema in front of them. She looks a little wider in person but nothing crazy.

She looks about like my mare, a little more belly, who's less than a month from her breed date. If you haven't felt anything all you can do is watch her and guess. If she'll let you you can wrap your arms around her belly when she comes in to eat, you might feel something?
 
I am pretty positive I felt movement and when I would feel one side the other side would drop and she would be sticking out on that side and when I would feel the other side she would drop to the other side. I am starting to lean towards her being in foal. 🤞🏻

I am not sure when she would have been bred and what month I would be expecting a foal if she is in foal. I know mares don’t really go by the book unfortunately but I wouldn’t mind having an estimate.
