Kidding Part IV





We help the does clean up their kids with old but clean towels. We weigh each kid so that we have a reference if we need to see if they are growing well. Then we clip the umbilical cord and dip it in iodine. If it is cold outside, the kids get a sweater for warmth. The kids are usually up in a few minutes looking for a drink.

Kidding Part III





The kid's shoulders came out easily once the legs were pulled forward. The rest of the kid was delivered quickly. Roni turned around immediately to start cleaning her baby. The kid was born with a clean face and did not need any suctioning to clear her airway.
