YAY FINALLY!!! Praying everything went very smoothly, I can hardly wait to hear all about the new baby!!!!!!!

Black and white Filly born just before 9PM. Robin did need a little help as she was getting tired and baby is BIG. Baby was up and walking around in 5 minutes. We still haven't latched on...I have tried to assist, but she is a little spitfire and gets annoyed if I try to help too much. Robin is very patient and puts up with all of it. Lots of milk available, baby just won't latch. When not guided, she goes back to the fence and tries to nurse. I took a break and decided to let them work it out for a bit. Gonna go back out in a few to check on them. Baby has 3 blankets on, btw. It is cold, so I wanted to make sure that she stays toasty.

Thanks! She is a little turd already! LOL. She has not latched on, on her own, yet. I went ahead and milked robin...got about 15cc into baby via medicine dropper. She seems to at least know where to look now, so that is good. I am leaving them alone for now. I feel better knowing that she at least got a LITTLE bit of colostrum in her. There will be more pics tomorrow when it is light out ;) I will keep you guys posted!
 
AT LAST!! Well done Robin - a filly to boot, brilliant!! Many congratulations to you all!!

The fact that you had to handle the filly early on to get her rugged up, which of course was necessary, may have temporarily have 'interferred' with the filly's ability to 'scent' Robin (to search for the milk bar). The fact that she is now looking in more or less the right place is good, I'm sure she will soon 'latch on'.

She's really cute, cant wait for more pictures. Again, many many congratulations!
