| Our Pregnant Girls: Daisy, Frieda and Kocoa |
The last exam on Thursday revealed their tendons are starting to soften. All this really means is that they are progressing, it doesn't give any real clue to the actual delivery date until the tendons go completely soft and don't feel present at all. When that happens, the cria is imminent.

The tendons I'm speaking about go from the base of the tail to the hip bone. I don't know the actual name, and I'm not planning on making a drawing or taking a photo. But just like in human mothers, tendons loosen to allow the baby to pass.
The tendons are starting to feel fuzzy. If that makes sense? Normally they feel very defined, like a bone. The tendon is still very apparent but just feels fuzzy around the edges.
Their bellies are quite firm and getting bigger. They're also cushing on their haunches more and laying with their legs to the side.

oh those cria are so hard to wait for! If only we had a warning sign to know for sure which day. I have spent way to many days watching and thinking "it's today" only to have it not be today.
ReplyDeleteWe had a maiden go very long (374 days) and another maiden who was more average (something around 355). I know it's so hard to wait, but exciting at the same time :)

Cara - I keep thinking about that 374 you mentioned last week and have been hoping we don't go that long.
ReplyDeleteFrieda was acting peculiar this morning. So I was hoping today was the day, but it's 3pm and nothing yet.
Hello Kathryn,
ReplyDeleteIt is such an exciting time for your family with the soon new delivery of Daisy’s new baby. Can’t wait to see the photos of the new little one. Smiles, Paula
