Birthing Question, More Sad News

[LoneOakGoats]

Just checked her and the discharge has stopped at least for now.

Sad news. Took her to the vet at 11 this morning. He said that one head was upside down, while 1 foot was right. That meant 2 babies at the same time. The vet tried to reposition the babies but was unable to, so they are doing a C-Section. We are waiting to hear back from them to bring her home. He was sure that none of the babies survived, but at least we have her. I feel so bad that I waited so long. Hard lesson learned.

So very sorry...some lessons with animals are learned in a very hard way.

Wondering how you are holding up.

She is resting in her pen in the garage here at our house. We'll keep her in here for 10 - 14 days until the stitches come out. It's just so sad to lose one of your pets. We only have 9 goats and love them all. Momma Mae Belle is the little doe that had a severe bout of pink eye last year, now she's lost her babies. She sure has a special place in our hearts. Thank you all for being so kind.
