Kidding chaos today over here.
Uki went into labor around 10 AM but wasn’t progressing. She was calm and resting most of the day. Around 5 PM I gave her oxytocin to try to help things along. PER vets order.. there is more details..
At the same time, I had to assist S’mores, who delivered two healthy twin girls.
Then things took a turn — Cocoa accidentally laid on her baby boy, breaking his spine. Unfortunately we had to humanely euthanize him.
Right after that, Uki began wheezing and gasping for air while pushing. Her baby was stuck in the pelvis and far too large to pass. The vet had to remove the baby Sadly, he did not survive.
Behind him, though, we were able to deliver a very healthy living doeling.
Meanwhile — because apparently that wasn’t enough for one evening — Lilac went into labor at the same time we were treating Uki. Her first kid came head first but positioned wrong, so I had to push him back in and reposition while the vet worked on Uki. Lilac ended up delivering two healthy twin boys.
To top it all off, Uki decided she wanted every baby of lilacs and kept trying to steal them, so I had to drag out more blue kidding pens and separate them..
I am officially maxed out for one day.
I will post photos of everyone after I get some sleep. 😴
