Thanks everyone, all appears to be well now.  This is my first time
being able to witness the entire birthing process so I was a bit of a
nervous wreck this morning. Sorry for the alarm.

here's the nice pictures from this morning:

Very cute, when they call sheep precocial they mean it! Sure makes me want to 
call rent-a-ram for our girls (if I could sneak it by the boss somehow)

Hi,
I didn't read all the posts, so sorry if this is a repeat, but her bag may
be very sore - you might want to milk out some of the milk and ease the
pressure on her bag and then she may let the baby suck.
