Well, just have to brag. I have my youngest son and wife expecting their first babies--that's right---twins. They are at 37 weeks gestation today.
Then I have 3 litters due 22 & 23 August--durocs bred to Slug, Fundamentals, and York cross bred to Gateway.
I am starting to get nervous. I am the CHOSEN one to pull since I have the small arms, but I am also the Neonatal Clinical Nurse Specialist/Head Nurse. I pray to God that everything doesn't start to happen at once. I know I will go to the twins, but what a mess that will be on the pig litters.
Which "litter" is going first????
Which litter is going to come first?

I was in the same boat a few weeks ago only mine was getting through the breeding season with 8 doses of semen in the cooler. My grandson is due on the 25th but my daughter is having some blood pressure trouble and sign of Pre-eclampsia. I was hoping things would calm down once she was put on bed rest. Well it did and we are very ready for him to come out. He is out of danger of being early. As you know those early boys don't do as well. I had a son 5 weeks early and he spent 2 weeks in a neonatal unit. He was very ill. He is 29 now and doing great. If he would only get on the ball and have me some grandkids so I have a reason to keep breeding pigs. Good luck with the twins. You didn't say what they are.
