Poor thing, who'd be a woman, regardless of species.

Not for this stage of labour I don't think, this is the second stage, think it's the first that can take hours.

Not that I've been watching harrowing videos on youtube reading about it Grin

Disasterpiece · 12/07/2011 23:43

Shit look how small her belly has gone.

Back legs are out!

piprabbit · 12/07/2011 23:43

I don't think it's going to take hours now - I think there's quite a lot of foal already out.

AmyStake · 12/07/2011 23:44

Oh this can take hours too? Bugger.
