Thanks...
Lonely has normal appetite, normal mood, and normal BMs today, as of a few minutes ago.

It's disheartening to make these repeated overnight checks only to be glared at with big mare eyes for disturbing her sleep. And she's so tired of me lifting her tail that she's starting to clamp it shut any time I walk out the door.

Sorry I have nothing to add about the situation, other than wish good thoughts for a positive outcome.

But I will have you know that I'm sitting here at work laughing out loud ... I now know the proper term for one of these:





(google "booger sucker" and indeed, that is what comes up!)

I think they're referred to as a nasal aspirator.

Yes, yes, you're right. I should've remembered that.

I wonder if they come in "super sized" to extract foals that won't leave the womb?


We're soooooo off topic.

We've always called them "Boogie Blasters" around here...

I just wanted to pop in and say that I am reading and waiting and watching. Loneley is never far from my thoughts these days!

We call them snot snatchers. The term at work is bulb syringe. But the best thing is the "Little Sucker" that attaches to the wall suction!!! Parents want to know how they can fashion their vacuum cleaner to accomodate the sucker!!!

Sending my thoughts for safe and healthy foaling, for baby and momma.
