[QUOTE="bandit80, post: 522383, member: 7956"] It is concerning when you read where others are having problems, especially those around you. I'd say you have a good plan if nothing happens by Monday. Just be sure to watch her close. After the water bag breaks, if she doesn't have a calf within an hour to an hour and a half, it probably be best to get some help. This also means not disturbing her after the water breaks. If it breaks out in the pasture/lot/etc, let her be until she has the calf. If she is already confined by a small lot or up in the barn, then you should be OK whatever she does. Sometimes messes cows up if you move them great distances after their water breaks, and they don't seem interested in pushing for a while. Since you are on your own for the first time, I hope you have some facilities if the cow needs help. Let us know how things go. [/QUOTE]
