Should you call a vet? Just in case I mean? Or at least do you have a stethoscope to listen for heartbeats?
Annabelle's at it again

I do have a stethoscope, but then again I guess calling the vet just to be safe and let her know whats going on wont be a problem.

The vet pretty much said that Annie is acting unusual however given the fluctuating temperatures she is not surprised. She also said that this year she has seen weird things like this happen thanks to the weather.
So, im not allowed to freak out unless her water breaks, she pushes and nothing comes out.
Shes so open you can drive a truck through there, so hopefully tonight or tomorrow she will finally let the baby out...
I should just start expecting some sort of drama from Anne every year.

I feel for you, because I'm going through the same thing with Ginger right now. She's as big as the side of a barn, but I have no bred date and don't have any idea how close we are to the end of her pregnancy. This is her 3rd kidding and with the other 2 she had a big udder boom the day she kidded. Although her udder is getting bigger, it's still not taunt or feeling at all completely full. She is spending more time by herself away from the others and lying down a whole lot more than she normally does. I check on her several times a day for any changes, but to no avail. The only change she had was her lady parts looked looser yesterday, but they are back to normal today. Like you, I just don't know, and it's about to drive me crazy! 
I believe God is teaching me patience, of which I have none.... I can't tell you how many batteries we've been through with the baby monitor, but I guess it's a small price to pay for being able to sleep at night.

If I didnt know her due date then that would have been so much easier...I feel for you, because I'm going through the same thing with Ginger right now.

Then of course she pretended to have contractions X_X

Ok now i'm stumped...
Her due date was the 14th-17th..its now the 18th and shes not looking any different...
Her ligs however are STILL gone...
I can wrap my fingers completely around her tail bone...
Shes enjoying this...
Now I have no clue whats going on or when shes going to have the babys.
For some reason shes just not letting them out.
And she had
contractions on Monday...They were actual contractions and I have witnesses...*feels slightly insane 
.* And if you look really close, you can see whats left the the mucus she was trailing this morning...
Brat...
