Triplets! A boy and two girls and we wanted that boy and I'm so glad that's over!
*falls over*
Good size, very strong and healthy, and dark dark dark.
Her water had broken when I went to give the (big XD) kids their lunch, and by the time they'd eaten and I gathered my bits, she was well and truly in labour. It was a bit of a strain, but the buck was born first, and easily, followed fairly quickly by sister number one. Sister number two was breach (backwards) but thankfully Dad had a few minutes spare at work and had come home, so he jumped in and pulled her out. She's a bit smaller than the other two, but the most mischevious. XD
Mother and babies have all had a drink (colostrum for the kids, molasses with a pinch of epsom salts for mum,) the kids are in their pen under the heat lamp, the towels have been hosed off, and I have changed my clothes. All is well with the world. :P
Special *glomps* for H, who was texting me from Uni while trying to break metal. We exchanged notes.
Me: had a girl now.
H: yay! sucker still won't break.
Etc. :P
Three is my favourite number. ^_^
