Looks like tonight maybe the night.

She is standing in the pen in what looks to be misery. She is stretching a lot and rubbing her head on things. Looking for food, going to the water and then not drinking. Like she is looking for comfort but nothing is working.

There is also a little pulse to her soft areas behind her ribcage, could just be her breathing. I'll keep an eye on it.

I can still find them. Where do they go? do they line up with the birthing canal or do they disintegrate?

They just loosen up to the point where you dont feel them. It is almost like you could grab around the whole tail area. My girl has 10 days left. Her pencils are now turning into rubber pencils. I can feel them but yet they sorta "bend" in a bit. On my girl who has nearly a month, her ligs are still the hard pencils.

I am guessing she missed her first heat and was bred on the second cycle.

Good news her Ligs are totally gone today and she is beginning to hollow out.

What does a contraction look like?


Since every one is getting help with names. Help me think of a name for everlasting patience treasured pain in the rump, because that is too long to put on the reg. certificate.
