[QUOTE="sunnyblueskies, post: 1771878, member: 39112"] You can do everything perfect, check on the clock like a machine, have all your 'maybe needed' supplies ready to go and you're still going to loose some. Look at me talk. I know exactly what you are saying, the could have, should have, would have after something goes wrong is just plain a killer on ones mindset. Let me guess your doc would put you in a straight jacket in a locked room if he/she knew what kind of activities you are doing after just taking off your neck brace!! I'm sorry you've lost that one, especially if it was someone elses project. Our old Vet always told us not to intervene unless the water is broke and not to break the bubble unless it's something obvious like just one leg hanging out, or just a tail. That the clock starts when the water breaks. To me it sounds like you did everything just how you should, who knows, there might have been something wrong with that calf before you saw it's head out. Not everyone can be as lucky as Travlr and his dugout cow. =D Most likely nothing what any of us says is going to help your bummed out feeling, BUT hearing everybody else going through moments like this does help ease the mind. At least for me it does. I hope for you too. [/QUOTE]
