That's cool! We've been doing pigs at my dad's place for about 3 yrs now.

I hope the vet does the stitching and it works.

Thanks for all the great pictures, looking forward to seeing the babies!

Prolapse is fixed, the vet pushed it back in and sewed her up with the ribbon thread. Went in easier than I ever imagined it would, and she didn't seem to be in any pain while getting the stitches. She peed three times. Looked like she was very thankful to have the pressure off her bottom.

Now we have to keep a very very close eye on her for signs of labor. because we have to cut the stitches off, so the babies can come out.

Glad it went well and you have a chance at saving the babies.

Happy to hear the vet was able to sew her up! I hope the kidding goes great without any problems!

Well, she is looking good this evening, pooped like 5 big piles, clearly she was backed up and she was very excited to have some hay to munch on, the prolapse is staying in and it hasn't started pushing on the stitches. One day down, around 28 more to go.

Everyone else is looking good, no new surprises. Some of the girls are starting to look pregnant. Well, just a little.
