Concerned

[TOU]

I'm still so new to the whole breeding thing that I'm not sure if I should be worried or not, but I kind of am. This morning I noticed a small blob of creamy discharge on Petunia's vulva. I didn't think much of it until about half an hour later when I noticed a slow drip of clear fluid. I took a closer look under her tail and her vulva was soft and puffy. She's not due till June 15. She looked and acted normal otherwise and was chowing down alfalfa like a machine. The vet assured me that her sickness last week would not harm her pregnancy, but I'm worried. Naturally this happened about five minutes before we headed out to Greeley for the goat show so I have no idea what she looks like tonight. There's someone coming to care for the gals in the morning and I hope she sees nothing out of the ordinary. I'm really hoping that someone here with more experience can reassure me that it's normal for some goats to do this.

I'd be terribly sad if my Pretty Pet lost her and Pac-Man's babies.

I'm sorry for your concerns with your little girl. I wish her you the best. Hang in there & keep us posted. Thx for all you are doing at the show.
