[QUOTE="bward, post: 516689, member: 48"] Three weeks have passed since my original post and Nothing has happened..... except that she is much bigger. She has no udder developement and her belly is sagging even lower and it is also much wider. I have never seen anything like this and am beginning to suspect that she may have hydrops, a condition where the amniotic fluid builds and builds. At this point she is still able to get up and lay down, able to move and able to stand for periods of time. She is relatively comfortable and does'nt seem to be in any distress other than lugging herself around. Don't know how much longer that will last though and am prepared to intervene when needed. She is still eating and ruminating. Our calving season has just begun and out of 5 cows calving we have had 2 sets of twins. I know there are more out there. will update again. [/QUOTE]
