I went out to check this morning and there they were – two doelings, already dried off and everything! I was so scared of having to “go in” and I ended up not even being there! I had checked on her last night, about 1:00 am, and she hopped up and just looked at me like “what are you doing out here, crazy woman…did you bring grain?” No signs of anything, no goo, nothing! And then at 7:00, there they were!
So, they’re kind of dumb about finding the boob. They root around on everything, but can’t seem to find it on their own. I helped them both nurse this morning, then I figured it best to let them alone to bond and figure things out. Will they get it? I thought I’d go out in an hour or so and help them again.
And yes, I have pictures! HT is weird for me, though. When I type, everything’s coming out backwards from what I’m typing, so I’m typing this in Word and then copying and pasting.
We haven’t named them yet. My oldest dd said if they were both girls, she wanted to name them Nanny and Nanko, after Abraham Lincoln’s goats. She’s very intellectual, lol! But, with them coming on St. Patrick’s Day, we might go with something else. I’ll have to ask her, lol!
