I have about an hour until i can get over there. But I was bored today so I made this, the picture is from over the weekend.

I don't think it is going to be tonight. Maybe tomorrow at least I hope so. She has been resting all day, not really straining at all, and no discharge. Everything I read says milk is present 12-24 hours but she has had significant amounts since monday. She has all the signs except the actual babies. I think resting all this time is just like the calm before the storm. Either way I am dying to meet these babies. Ironically enough last year on the second day of the big march snowstorm is when my ewe unexpectedly lambed sooooo(wishful thinking I know).

What do you guys think?

She may have milk but.... is it makin her teats full yet? If not there is still time. When it drops down into those and you see discharge then keep a more close eye on her.

She is in labor guys, I dont think we will see babies for a few more hours but this is happening!

She HAS to wait until midnight plus 1 second, otherwise your birthday presents will be early!
