Her udder was getting fuller but not carrying low enough yet. Her ligaments were looser but still there.
01/28/2021
@7:30 am: Opera did not want to come inside to eat on the stand. She was standing and crying . Her udder is much fuller than the night before. She is carry lower. Her ligaments are looser, too. We decided to move her to the kidding pen. She had a hard time moving.
@9:30 am : She has been panting. I see that she has some early labor contractions. Her eyes get dilated and stops moving for a few seconds. I cans see that she is carry much lower with dimples. She keeps crying. Not interested in eating. Has some looser feces.
@10:25 am: Went inside and felt her cervix is pretty much opened but I did not feel any babies or bubbles behind it. She keeps making gooey fart. Her mouth smells like Ketosis (?). Gave some Cal MPK, 4 Tums and 2 vitamin C chewable. Had a whole bowl of molasses warm water.
@11:15 am: We went inside but it was still tight that we could not put hand all the way to check babies' positions. Her cervix might be still not completely opened yet. After this examination, she started smelling her babies and scratching the ground.
@11:30 am: She started smelling all over the ground and started calling baby/mother talk. She also ate some hay. Cudding as well.
@11:50 am: Tiny unplugging goo came out. Panting. scratching the ground a lot but not sitting. Udder is not completely full like a basketball.
@1:50 pm: Started getting into her own world during the contractions. She finally laid down.
@2:15 pm: Her udder is like a basketball texture. Eating kelp.
@2:30 pm: She has been standing up and laying down. Panting, and crying.
@3:45 pm: Went inside. Able to put 5 fingers in and I could feel the bubble the other size of the cervix.
@3:53 pm: While standing, she pushed several times.
@4:15 pm: Took her out for a walk around the farm to let her body stretch before pushing time.
@5:05 pm: Pushed. Water came out and then leaked a little. Pushed again then stopped.
@5:14 pm: She started pushing and the bubble started showing. Saw one foot upside down. We had to turn the baby to the correct position. Took a little while to keep into the correct position while Opera kept pushing.

@ 9:48 am: I found Opera outside of #4 under the sun relaxing but not moving at all.
She looked at me and cried & showed some pushes. I encouraged her to stand up but she looked at me as if she couldn't.
