[QUOTE="Bright Raven, post: 1612519, member: 27490"] The odds are on that she has already lost her pregnancy. So there is nothing to abort. Yes, pregnant cows/heifers can have false estrus but IMO, you play the probabilities. The most likely scenario is that she lost her pregnancy and you have observed her in heat. If you administer Lutalyse (it causes lysis of the Corpus Luteum) in 10 days from now, she will return to heat. That saves you about 8 days in waiting for a full term cycle. If you want to cover the bases, you could have a vet palpate her to confirm that she has lost her pregnancy. Up to you. [/QUOTE]
