There's Alyssa talking to her...  you know she's more excited than anyone about this..

I can't imagine trying to help deliver a giraffe calf, it would be very dangerous but as @Bird mama said, it needed the medical people will address it.

I was going to go to the grocery store to beat the crowd, but not now.  This is why I didn't tune in to the live feed for the past month.  I work full time and probably would've gotten fired for watching April instead of doing what they pay me for :-)

I wonder if she keeps turning around and licking the legs as some form of encouragement?!

[Bird mama]

@KingstonsMom  I've never been pregnant, however I imagine the pressure and stretching that is required to pass her baby is pinching and uncomfortable. You moms out there would know better than me.

Giving birth of anything ain't for sissies :-)

Oliver innocently watching; April looking at him hatefully!

How long have the hooves been showing?

[Bird mama]

@mousiegirl  From what I know about 90 minutes.  Your daughter is a vet, should I be concerned?

My daughter weighed 9lbs., 10oz. and was 21.5" long.....my labor took 21.5 hours!

I can't even imagine a 150lb., 6' baby, LOL!

@LTT1  I think April is just walking it out.  At this point I don't think she is giving Oliver any time, lol.

@KingstonsMom, OUCH!!!!!!!!!!
