Rough kidding

Anna kidded with triples the first one came out bottom and hocks first I did not think I would ever get him out. The other 2 girls came out with spots..That was a shocker.Anna has passed both placentas and is resting now.

Congrats on the new babies ...Did you worm the momma? also give her some molasses water as it will help her make milk for the babies. Also if she is really swollen I rub Prep H on the outside to help with the swelling. man does it help alot...Congrats again.

Woo hoo! One thing that I learned about delivering large kids is if they come back-feet-first and are still a tight fit, get them to the point where they are at their shoulders and then go in and work one front leg at a time free. It really helps!
