12:15AM By 3:08AM it was getting worse 3:15AM I went into her stall with her I sat down to show her I was staying and that she can relax By 3:30AM she was so relaxed with me in there, she was dosing off harder. I put my hand out to her and told her “it’s okay! I’m here.” And she finally laid down 🥺 She got up shortly after and stretched. And then started refusing again 🥺 5:05AM She couldn’t hold out anymore and went back down to sleep. 🥺
