"Trouble" time again.

MirandaT · #**101** 03/15/15, 02:01 AM

Thick rope like clearish white goo with blood in it and big contractions now

MirandaT · #**102** 03/15/15, 02:41 AM

Still big contractions
And still no baby. I'm starting to freak out

MirandaT · #**103** 03/15/15, 03:48 AM

3:15 am babies born!!!
The first one was stuck under siblings. And she was wore out bad. She pushed and pushed and finally I went in and pulled baby 1. A buckling. While we were cleaning him, I turned around in time to catch baby 2. A doeling. While she loved on them.... Baby 3 came. A buckling. As far as I can tell there's no more. I bounced her and it felt mushy.

Thank you for guidance!

My Internet went out. I'm so sorry mirandaT. I'm so glad all turned out for the best and great job rearranging the babies. Always trust your gut with your goat. You know them best.

MirandaT · #**110** 03/15/15, 09:07 AM

4 whole hours of sleep. Lol
All the babies are up and moving and eating. Mama delivered the placenta after I went bed. ImageUploadedByHomesteading Today1426428400.883585.jpg

MirandaT · #**111** 03/15/15, 09:07 AM

Of to church... Will post about it later

NMminihomestead · #**112** 03/15/15, 12:14 PM

Yay!! Congrats! Three adorable bouncy babies! I hope you can manage to squeeze in a nap after church!

SouthGAMan · #**113** 03/15/15, 01:02 PM

So glad everything worked out for you! The babies are beautiful and glad the mom doing great. I've got 2 does myself that look to kid soon. Both have udders that look like they are about to pop. For one it is their first kidding but the other has went through 3 kiddings before. I've really been involved in reading your ordeal and just hoping and praying that all goes smooth here too.

MirandaT · #**114** 03/15/15, 02:10 PM

Ok. So here goes.... I finally was able to get my whole hand in after three hours of contractions and manual stimulation to cervix. Felt the nose and toes of the buckling. However no matter how hard she pushed he would not break free. I grabbed him the best I could and helped pull but he still wouldn't budge. It was almost like he was hooked under the pelvic bone or something. And had siblings on top of him. I had to keep my hand in and pulling and positioning him for ten minutes before I got him close enough for her to push him out. She was so wore out by that point that her pushes were not very effective. So I pulled him all the way.
Once we got him free.... The doeling fell out. Lol
Then the buckling after that who needed some assistance. He was the largest.
Here's the weird thing..... I only popped one sac. And only seen one. Is it possible all three were in the same sac?
And two of them had this thick yellow goo attached to their back legs. It was very hard to get off and had the consistency of half dried glue. Every seen it? I never have and didn't know what it could be.

I cleaned them and her and helped them all latch on. Then went to bed... She delivered the placenta sometime after that. Usually I would wait but I was going on 25 hours up with her. Does is look normal to you. Lots of blood clot raisin things:-)

So after a chaotic 24 hours- these are the adorable 16lb, 12 oz bundle of perfection that caused our lack of sleep
Lol

Great job. Nice big babies! Now get some rest. I just found my phone buried in hay in my barn. No wonder I couldn't find it last night.

myheaven · #**116** 03/15/15, 03:25 PM

I can tell by the birthing fluids that baby A was stressing. The placenta looks normal. She could not have done this without your help. You did great!

Are you talking about that funky yellow glue stuff....? Baby 1 & 2 had it. It was awful sticky, thick, and just gross. I have no idea would it could have been

punchiepal · #**118** 03/15/15, 04:46 PM

Congrats! Beautiful babies. Very nice sized too.

Yep
Yellow stuff=stress

MirandaT · #**119** 03/15/15, 05:42 PM

Really- I did not know that. Poor stressed babies.

myheaven · #**120** 03/15/15, 06:02 PM

The yellow stuff is meconium their first poops. Just like human babies. Just an fyi I showed my big burley husband the pics of your new babies, he turned into a blubbering man with their cuteness.
