Thank you. Hoping no kidding issues. First two years of kidding i stressed so much. I feel relaxed this time.

Marshmallow is now grunting while she sleeps. It is loud!!! We put a tire in her birthing pen for her to stand on. It has now become her pillow. Pic is blurry i had to zoom in.

7 days for Marshmallow! We're not excited at all.
Will get pics of her after we shave her. DD2 is now requesting every night that we wake her up if Marshmallow goes into labor. Webcam is up. Birthing kit was refilled. We are beyond ready.

How is she doing? The last 5-10 days for me are always fun. If she were mine I would be watching birthing videos, rereading positions, reading waiting threads, checking the time, wanting to go to sleep but you lay there and think what if you missed a sign! So you get out of bed, check the camera, think maybe you just can't see that her udder has grown. Get a coat on, go outside, everyone begs for treats and nothing has changed. Then you swear you just saw her have a contraction or she has goo, her ligs are almost gone, etc. You stay and watch her for the next half hour. She laughs, you go back to bed, set an alarm and repeat for the next 3-10days. Well, that's how it is here anyway. Lol. Can't wait to see how many and what she has. I need baby goat pics to get me through the next 40 days!

Lol I love your post. The last two kiddings this is what happened. Haha.
This year I have a better router. I can stream the webcam that I have set up in her pen to the t.v. in my bedroom, or cell phone, or computer.
No significant udder change, ligaments are not gone yet.

4 days for Marshmallow! Marshmallows udder has gotten a lot bigger! Picture on the right is from last night. The one on the left is this morning. Still not full but bigger.

So excited! 3 weeks today for Almond.

Yay! We are getting closer. Just a few more days

No udder change today. 3 days! It looked like she was having light contractions last night. Lots of stretching, yawning, adjusting how she was sleeping. We are all anxious.
