Fall 2020 Kidding

Still hanging on. Super uncomfortable but not serious about anything. Dang goat!

 

Nope, same so far.

I know when Lucy went into labor last year and stalled multiple times my vet had said she saw an article about does being able to stall their labor if there are malpositioned babies or some other issue.

That might be the case here I'm thinking with Magic. She has not dilated any further but she is also not in distress at all. She is uncomfortable obviously but not in pain. No baby in the birth canal. No pushing at all unless my fingers are in. Water has not broke. So I think we are going to give her until Monday AM and then induce if no progress. Obviously we will do something sooner if needed. But if there is no distress then she is OK. Saw heartbeats on ultrasound so that is good.

 

Lucy was pretty much like this all night lol

 

We are watching Magic very closely for any signs of infection with her cervix being open. They are both doing well this morning and were let out to get some much needed exercise.

 

Thank you! They are enjoying the big bale of hay today.
