Can I stop worrying now? STRESS!

Hi folks!

Been up since 5.30am - Lucy seems to be a bit off it. She is weeing and pooing but is not her usual greedy pig self and a bit quiet so I have been monitoring her and I am shattered!

I have been trying to get her to eat something but she has been putting her nose down to everything - but she ahs just scoffed some baby Blackberry leaves and some freshly sprouted dandelions and had a glug of water.

Can I relax a bit now? I will still keep an eye on her but can I breathe a bit now?

Why do these things always happen on a Bank Holiday or a blooming Sunday!!!

PS. Are blackberry leaves OK for buns? I did read that raspberry and blackberry leaves are good for tummys but am I right?
 
Blackberry leaves are fine:D
They don,t half know how to worry us don,t they:roll::roll:
I am sure she will be fine.:D:love:
 
Her poos are fine - but a bit smaller. I did find a humongous sticky poo in the run this morning so I think she may have tummy ache.

She has just scoffed some more dandys which I had soaked in water to get some water into her and some blackberry leaves (I had to go right to the back of the prickly bush to get the green fresh ones) and she has scoffed them.

I am going to just give hay and water today - I do think in hindsight I am giving too many pellets so plain simple fayre today.

Im off back to bed with some Valium and a packet of choc teackaes.
