Isit possdible to see kids kick or move inside the nanny, we have 2 in kid with fat bellies to one side. We were checking feet as its very wet here and my wife is posotive she saw a kick.

I have several pygmy's due in the next month and although most are very protective of their 'bumps' - Willow will let me place my hands on her's and more often than not I can feel the kids kicking. I haven't seen kids kicking but I don't doubt what your wife saw as up close and in good light I'm sure it's possible.

so things could be imminent!

You can see kids moving or kicking but as stated it is usually when they are further on- within the last month say.

I can feel Willows kids for about the last five weeks - but to see them I would guess as the last couple of weeks or they are big bruisers!!

Bruckley, on your little picture, is that a goat with wellies on?

Ha ha ha - that's Domino the kid I kept with her brown brother - so many of the kids last season had boots/wellies - must be a trait of their Dad - see what magical patterns he throws this year soon. :excited:

My girls had their midwife check this morning ( daughter is a midwife) they were very good about it . Both have started to bag up and after a bit of prodding we have decided that Gobo is too fat to be able to feel any kids but Petal is slimmer and think that she is carrying a single.
