Well...Miss Magnifique is due the 11th!

She was not so friendly at first, but she has won my heart. Such a curious and tolerant doe!

So I THINK i felt a couple lumps and a kick...but not sure. coulda been my finger twitching cause they were pretty cold


but oh how she loooves her tummy rubbed lately. she was never real tolerant of pets anywhere but her head and ears, but now she stands up when she sees me for me to pet her tummy lol. its kinda cute and she just stands there while i rub her tummy and feel around only rabbit i have ever met who is okay with me rubbing her belly lol

really hoping for some tri-colors or a harli at least!!!

I have the best luck feeling for babies the last few days. And normally, the best way is just to sit mama down, put both hands on her belly, and apply gentle pressure. But in a big girl, even that can fool ya!

Yeah, palpating for me is never foolproof until the last week or so before they go. I keep practicing, though, one day I'll figure it out!

i didnt officially palpate because im afraid to hurt the kits like i have heard, but i figured if shes prego her stomach would be hardish

Oh, I try and try and try some more. I figure with enough practice, one day it will click. I generally avoid trying on the last week or so of a pregnancy, but by that point you can usually feel them fussing in there
