First of the Month - March

I'm joining Jan at Murrieta 365 for her First of the Month meme all this year. Here are the ground rules per her site: "The goal is to capture one thing repeatedly on the first of each month. It can be a landscape, a person, an animal, a project; whatever your focus is, is fine. It can even be a record of where you are each First of the Month."
I am focusing on my Alpine doe, Abigail, and her first pregnancy and kidding. She is due to kid the middle of April. I never think there is much difference in how she looks until I go back and look at the post for last month! This time, I thought I would let Abigail fill you in on how she is doing. :)


"A girl needs to keep her strength up when she is pregnant by eating lots of yummy hay! I get my goat cereal too for the extra protein and vitamins."


"My belly is getting so big that I have trouble getting up from my mid-morning nap and I'm starting to waddle when I run! Don't laugh, it's not nice!"


"Can you see my "baby bump" on the right? Candy is hoping that I only have one kid since this is my first time being pregnant."


"Dang, it's really getting hard to get my hoof up there to scratch that itch!"


"That's it for this month! I hope you come visit me again at the beginning of April, by then I should be HUGE! I don't want to be huge but Candy and my maaa keep telling me it's going to happen."

    I love prego goats. My boyfriends mom has a lamancha with crazy horns. I think it's hilarious when she whips her head around to deliberately scratch an itch.

    This would also be good for NEXT years pregnancy so you can "try" to gauge how many kids are in there! Don't forget to take pics of her udder too!!

    Her babies should be marked very nice. I always hope for more than one, since one is usually quite big. Good luck : )

    I am so looking forward to watching her thru this! Fun for me, probably not so fun for her.

    Glad things are going well for you Abigail! This first pregnancy is probably very exciting as well as annoying at how hard some things are getting to be. I suppose we'll see you one more time and then you'll get your girlish figure back?

    Mimi,
    Thanks!

    Teresa,
    Abigail said "Maaa!"

    Jan,
    You're right, lots more fun for us! LOL!!

    Faye,
    She is sure hoping to get her girlish figure back soon after kidding! ;-)
