Ready to pull my hair out..update...prolapse? New pics pg 4

[Roll farms]

I only use lut to induce...and only done that....um... 3 times in...9 yrs?

I don't give Oxy every time, but I've found it helps if 1st timers are dragging things out b/c they're not sure what's going on....Our vet told me to do it years ago when I called about a doe I was worried about.

I thought she WAS dilated...I saw a 'bubble' / head pooch (or so I thought :/). I would never (except this time.. ) give it to a doe I wasn't sure was dilated / ready.
All it does for labor is cause harder contractions, not dilating.

Never had a problem using it on a doe in active labor.

I think if it was going to hurt her you would know by now.

How is she doing? It seems to be the year for false alarms. Mine have all been she is going to kid any second now! wait.........wait for weeks.
-OR-
Where the heck did that baby come from?!?!?!

No in-betweens at all.

Think I've only used Lut once for inducing labor (a few times for heat . . . & more times than I'd like to remember for accidental breedings, LOL!) . . .& Oxytocin a coupla-3 times - but it was for retained placenta or milk let-down.

My non-dilating doe was a long time ago, too - likeummm, 6 years ago, I think? - so I dunno, either. Just remember someone freaking out & saying not to use Oxytocin on my doe b/c . . . she would spontaneously combust into a pile of ashes or something like that, LOL. I had to manually dilate her AND pull a 15 lb. buck kidholycrap. Talk abt some tired hands!

So? That doe pop any kids out yet, or WHAT?!

 

[Roll farms]

Nope.
She's now on day 151 and doesn't look inclined to do much today but eat....
Dallas (Cheap Wine's sister) is on about day 452...or so it seems...and she doesn't look ready, either.

*sigh*

Did you breed her to an elephant?

 

[Roll farms]

LOL...No, I had the 8th down as a ? due date...which means I saw someone sniffing her butt or attempting to mount her (but didn't see the 'deed') 5 mos before that.

She's uddered up, but not tight...loose in the twee, but still has ligs.

I *hate* not having a due date...but then again, they rarely follow the human rules and go on their due date, so I guess it doesn't really matter.

LOLOL! Day 452. At least Day 151 isn't like: worrisomely (is that a word?) overdue . . . maybe she's just uncomfortable, hence the stretching & "contracting" & the poochy twee-ing & all that?

I did a LOT of pen-breeding last year so get to just guess on a bunch of my does, this year. Fun. Also, had a couple of buck escapes that, so far, just produced ONE "accident". *knocking wood* Awesome accident, though! I need to send you pics b/c she'd be yourummm - niece? Sired by your buck's twin bro. & have to send you pics of one of his paternal sisters from this year, that'll make you POOP.

At least the weather's decent, so we shouldn't have to worry too much abt kidcicles on those surprise kiddings, huh?

Hey, when do you switch your kids to 2x/day bottles?

 

[Roll farms]

60 days is when I take mine to 2 bottles....then at 10 wks they go to 1, weaned at 3 mos.

 

[LostNation]

K, thanks.

Hey, Kris! 60 days!



(I think she's on this forum, anyway)

 

[Roll farms]

I think I am looking at a prolapse with her.

Never had one before....I'm worried.

She stood up today and some pink flesh was sticking out her twee. When she stretched, it sort of 'sucked' back in, and now she looks 'normal'...

But that's 3 times now when she's been lying down she had something sticking out.

I think from what I've read that the fact that her uterus isn't hanging out all the time is a good sign...?
And that if possible, when she kids, I should try to keep it from coming out when she's pushing. I know it's more complicated than that but that's the only way I can think of to describe it.
Is there a chance she can kid normally in later pregnancies or should she be retired, even if she and the kid end up coming out ok?

Anyone got any suggestions / advice / anything I should be aware of before (IF!!!) she does go into labor?
