[SIZE=12pt]We had a baby! It's A Boy!!!!!!!!![/SIZE][SIZE=12pt][/COLOR] Oh man, was this a close call........[/SIZE][SIZE=12pt][/COLOR] I went out to check, and she was standing there with a redbag hanging out of her a little smaller than a basketball, and I just new we lost the foal, because the one part was dried and turning white.[/SIZE][SIZE=12pt]SO I didn't have a knife, and happened to still have my fake fingernails on, Thank god for them for a change!LOL[/SIZE][SIZE=12pt]I sliced the bag with my nail, and the water came gushing out. I actually was able to reach both hands inside her(she was still standing for all this, never did lay down) and felt what I thought was an open mouth, I was upset but kept feeling, just knowing it wouldn't be a good outcome. [/SIZE][SIZE=12pt]Then she pushed and I got ahold of a foot and reached back in and got the other, pulled it out, and broke the sack off of it's head. Then I finished pulling it out, I knew it would be gone, but I held it upside down and shook him, and all this fluid came out of his nose, and he started moving. YEAH!!!!!!![/SIZE][SIZE=12pt][/COLOR] I just put them in the stall and he is looking for the milk bar....He is small and oh so cute, wish he had been a she, but we are soooooo Thankful That he is ALIVE! [/SIZE][SIZE=12pt][/COLOR]Jenny was real good with me helping her, thank goodness![/SIZE]
[SIZE=12pt]I think she may have had some sort of infection that caused the redbag, Nothing else explains why she had all that white discharge for so long.[/SIZE][SIZE=12pt]Thank goodness for happy endings![/SIZE][SIZE=12pt]******I am going to post pics of the placenta to show you how white the one part was, I am not sure if it was white from being out so long, or if she had an infection that caused it, it was also hard feeling, and should not have been hard or discolored like that.*************[/SIZE]
