Frequent nosebleeds in children. It is common for children to get nosebleeds. Most nosebleeds get better on their own and are not a cause for concern. In rare cases, a nosebleed may be a symptom of a more serious problem, such as an injury to the head.
Most mares will begin to bag up in the last month to month and a half of gestation. This means that her udder will begin to swell. Many mares will resist attempts to touch their udders or nipples, which can interfere with the foal s nursing attempts.
The last stage of foaling is the passing of the afterbirth. If there has been a normal birth, mares will stand some 15 to 20 minutes after giving birth and begin to nuzzle and lick the foal. This is a critical period as the bond is being established between the dam and foal.
