Ghia is due today!!!
No active labor as of yet this morning. No grunting, discharge, pawing, etc. But her right ligament is completely gone and I can still just barely feel the left one. She seems a little more sunken in that area, and her udder looks full.
Of course I have school tomorrow. I hope she has them before then!!! If she hasn't had them or isn't in active labor by the morning I'll go to school and have my bf keep an eye on her and then call me when she goes into labor so I can come home.
But I hope she has them today!!!
Later that day: Goats are due on the 150th day from breeding, and today was exactly 150 days.
And guess what we have???
TWO BABY DOELINGS!!!!
Ghia had them at about 2 pm. Wonderful weather, blue skies. I started noticing contractions at about 11 am. Had them a couple hours away, plop plop, less than a minute apart. Easy birthing and the babies are big and healthy! I had my totes full of everything I needed and towels and I hardly used anything because everything went so great. I couldn't have asked for a better first experience.
I can't tell you how happy I am!!!!
