Oh WOW! 5 babies in a ND belly? That is amazing. It's no wonder she had them so fast...they probably just shot out!

Goodness Gracious. I have some ND and so far only twins for the last two years. Wow!! I think they are so adorable. And yes --I think you will be busy there. Give them a few days to figure out it is you to bring the milk and when one is hungry and yelling then the rest will join in and it will be crazy. But a good crazy!!

I didn't get a pre-kidding picture...

She was wide but not crazy wide......I mean, she had always given me triplets, so that is what I expected. And she is a short stout doe anyway, so I never even considered that she could hold that many.

Congrats!! And yes, better you than me!LOL!! Its funny but none of my girls who have quads look extra big, then pop out seven lbs quads. I think they just like to see our faces when we behold the litter they just gave us....
