Walking problem for cow

[Anonymous]

Is it possible for a calf that is in utero to get on a nerve that would effect the mother cow's ability to walk. I have a cow due to freshen in a month, that is walking gingerly on her one hind quarter. It looks like it could be a nerve, because she puts full weight on the leg.

Not all that uncommon. You may notice at different times she has problems with the opposite leg and the original leg is ok.
