not to jinx myself…

I waited a week or two to post this, so as to not jinx myself.

It looks like Boo’s milk production has now come up, and Miniya is gaining weight on her own. Saturday Jan 20th was the last time she had a “big drink”, and in the week that followed she had little interest in the bootle, so by the next weekend we stopped offering it, and she managed to keep gaining weight. The weight gain was a bit slow and uneven at first, but it seems ot be improving.

Now it is the wait for Galadriel to give birth. She is now 4.5 weeks overdue, huge, and grumpy. Victroia is now due in only 3 weeks, and is showing signs of getting ready (udder is starting to fill).

The last few days have been quite warm, especially as the skies have been clear and the sun very hot. We have brought the girls down a few times for hose-offs, as they really like playing in the water. I will probably do so again this afternoon, as I am sure both Galadriel and Victoria, who are both heavily pregnant, would love to cool down a bit.
