At 2pm yesterday, the eve of my Birthday, Felicia started nesting in her straw and arranging it just so.

By 10pm she was laying down and starting to push.

10:42 presented the first piglet, mostly white with a spattering of spots. He/she pretty much ran to a teat in under a minute.

11pm and a little white/chipmunk comes barreling in. This one is the most playful so far.

11:02 brought another spotted baby, with a block dot right on top of it's head.

11:11 brings another, with heavy spotting including at the base of each ear.

11:18 and the last is born, with spots over both eyes and a pushiness that earned him the name Bruiser. Not a confirmed male, but we'll see. Saw him tinkle like a male.

1:30am brought the placenta, with another pile of goo an hour later. She stopped pushing after that so hopefully we're all clear. Watching her temperature just in case.

She's so good at this! Too much cute! She's being so careful and attentive to their noises! She did everything very textbook.
