It’s been a very emotional and worrying day, here at TEAS.

Daisy, who was rescued, along with 30 other piggies, from a dreadful situation, a few weeks ago, was pregnant. Her pregnancy had been progressing nicely and she’d been enjoying her new life, along with her little friends, Buttercup and Cherry.

Sadly this morning she started to miscarry and was losing a huge amount of blood. She had passed three very premature babies and was rushed to vets. On examination, Kim could feel at least one more baby and she was admitted for fluids, oxytocin to help her expel the remaining baby and possible C Section and spay.

She passed another baby but Simon can still feel something inside her uterus. He thinks it’s likely to be a placenta. He doesn’t want to opt for surgery, unless he has to, as she’s suffered such a huge blood loss.

Daisy is now home and is very bright and lively, despite the ordeal she’s been through. Simon will see her again tomorrow. She’s such a little trooper

What a relief she is doing so well xx
 
So sorry to hear this news about Daisy. Keeping her iin my thoughts. ❤️
 
What a relief to hear that Daisy has made it and is well and eating after her ordeal.
Poor girl and poor you! Sadly the risk of miscarriage is always highest in newly rescued sows that haven't had the chance yet to settle down and profit fully from the good rescue care. But thanks to you and the Cat& Rabbit Care team, Daisy has made it and has got a chance at a normal, long and happy life! :(
 
Update after visit to Simon this morning -

Simon has had a good feel of Daisy's uterus and he can still feel a thickening on the left side. He's pretty confident it isn't a baby as he says, when it is, you can clearly feel the skull. It may be a placenta, but for now we are monitoring her very carefully and playing a waiting game. She's so well, but he also mindful of how much blood she lost yesterday, so is reluctant to go in and spay her, if he doesn't have to. If she does need a spay, he would rather do it in a few days, when she's had more time to recover. He's still very hopeful it won't come to that though. He's told me to take her straight in, if I notice even the most subtle deterioration. Her bladder is definitely working well, as she did two massive pees, over me, while we were waiting!
 
Aw, so glad she is making a recovery, fingers cross everything will be ok
 
She's such a superstar. She puts my wimpy boys to shame. Especially Podrick. He had a screaming session at the weekend when I was cutting his nails. He even screamed when I didn't snip a nail.

She deserves nothing but the best when she's ready for a new home!
 
Everything crossed that Daisy makes a full recovery. I'm sure once she is well someone will give her a wonderful home. ❤️❤️
 
So sorry for such a tough and tragic day, but at least daisy is still with us, it wasn't meant to be for those little ones and they'll go on to live a life full of popcorning over the rainbow bridge, fingers crossed for Daisy's recovery 🤞❣️
 
So sorry to hear that Daisy lost her babies, that's very upsetting. Glad she is recovering from the ordeal and I hope the remaining problem gets resolved without the need for surgery. She certainly deserves a first-class home when she is better. Healing vibes from us x
 
Sending hugs to Daisy. So sad she lost her babies, hope she continues to get better soon. She deserves a great home full of love.xx
