Well, unless things go badly with the vet this afternoon it looks like Valeria will have almost made a full recovery.
Hopefully today is her last uterine flush. Finger crossed.
She’s drinking water again and the weather has cooled down a little. I’m hoping she won’t be dehydrated when I get home. She was borderline yesterday.
She seems to be producing a lot more milk now that she’s on oxytocin and donperidone. Apparently donperidone will make a mare lactate even if she isn’t pregnant/hasn’t had a baby.
We’re possibly looking at the light at the end of this tunnel. Which is great because I’m not sleeping well. I just toss around in bed and watch V and the foal on the live feed. Even though they’re both doing better, this camera is totally enabling my insomnia. lol
A few nights of sleep would really help me think of a name for our new tyrannical overlord addition…
Yay, glad everyone is almost out of the woods, and hopefully you can go back to sleeping!

I get so stressed over my horses when they get sick. My track record for horses rebounding from this type of stuff isn’t great. Very happy it is going well!!

Belated congratulations on your new addition, I hope things continue to go uphill from here!
I’m not sure the lack of sleep will be helping your own recovery so sending good juju your way!
