Belle ate right up till about 2 hours before Dot was born. Her not eating her last feeding that night is what tipped me off something was happening. I feed her at 10 and she didn't eat, and Dot was here right before midnight.

Yep, this is so obvious I feel like a fool to have carried on b4 (blushes). I have everything ready and lots of coffee.........
You win, everyone knows for once that you were RIGHT at least once:)
Becky
You might not want to start on the coffee just yet. It could still be, FWIW, according to the book 2-4 DAYS.
The best thing about horses tho, once they start, it's quick.
Becky
I may as well start the coffee, cause there is no way I am going to be able to sleep! I havent slept properly more than an hour since she has got "near"!
Something about this site, Like CindyDawg says, I have learnt a lot in a small space of time and made mistakes. My concern over her belly was hard to desribe and frustrating for you all because "tire " meant nothing, but once you had seen the photos, it was obvious!
I am up and down (like I will be till she has it) with the binoculars. : )
Everyone has to learn. No shame in that.
Becky
Hey, even a stopped watch is right twice a day. ;o)
Yeah, but so far with this mare we aren't even doing as good as a stopped watch:)
Becky
Boy, I am off the board for a few hours and look what happens. I'm in for 2:30am, 2/1/05 EST.
I can't get back on here for a couple of hours :(
You aren't making mistakes. You are learning. Got it? :')
Yeah, your right. It'll probably be the weekend the way our luck is running.
I hope its not that far away.........I'm TIRED! : )
Is someone, besides this nervous novice taking account of everyones times???
Its 8:23 EST here now, and she is eating a little.
We all know the times we took, and you can bet whoever is right will crow about it:)
Is she eating in her normal fashion, or picking at it?
Becky
Nope, I'm not keeping track of time :)
Since you're tired of waiting, I'll change my time in the pool to 9pm your time. Don't bet on me being right though.
Hey don't you have one due in Feb?
Becky
I do - the end of February, 25th to the 28th.
Oh Good time to recover from this one, but something to look forward too:)
You've got one due in March too? April's open, then Belle in May:)
