Just to put your mind at rest (and I did check her pedigree), she will not carry the frame gene as she is British Shetland bred through and through - many relations to a lot of my old original stock too.  ;D
She's a lovely little mare, good luck for a safe foaling.

310 I think? Lost count lol we have a fair bit of butt pressing, rocking and pacing. Looser poopoos too but it's the grass I think. Still got a bit of loosening to go and could be softer at the tail head. Boobs are down again and still nothing to test but I have them a good clean. I have a contact at the vets who can get me milk as emergency if needed but I think my neighbour should have some. I hope they have colostrum too if I need it.

She is looking good, and I'll be surprised if she doesn't fill that udder at foaling or right after, if not just before.

I really hope so, I only have charm to compare to and she had milk for weeks before! still does!!

I'm in good company so to speak (all three neighbours are stud farms) but I'd really like to get some liquid down. I wonder should I be feeding her more stud balancer or anything milky idk. Stresssss!

The up & down udder thing can drive us batty!
She looks very good and hopefully she will build a big beautiful udder to give you warning!
