She's gone . . .

Dh got her home and fed her the electrolytes, he then worked on getting some milk in her. A few minutes later the milk came back up and she died. Words cannot describe what I feel right now.

I'm very sorry to hear about your calf. It's hard to watch those things happen.

I am so very sorry you have to go through this. We lost several bottle calves this year, and each one is hard because you do second guess yourself. Each. And. Every. Time. You learn though, and it gets easier once you know you have done everything right.

I'm so sorry! I know how strongly you're feeling everything right now with your own little baby on the way, but you did everything you could.

You're in our prayers.

I'm really sorry you are going through this. We lost one of ours this winter too. It seems ours wasn't getting enough nutrition when we thought we were doing good. It really isn't easy.
