 birthing them babies..
I try very hard to let mom do it. Sometimes I just want it over and cut the cord myself..then let mom have it back. You have to know when to help and when to let them be...recently I allowed both Charlotte and Claire to do everything themselves, I was there incase of a problem..there was none. It is hard for me to sit back and not help.
If a foot is out or the head and no progress, sure I would have jumped in.
This is a tough question to answer...breeders have problems because they do too little and too much...there is a middle ground I have learned to take.
