Over Due heifer

She is taking her sweet time showing signs. I go and check up on her every day. And every time I see her most of the time all I see is the clear mucus. Just recently she had a small amount of brownish discharge. I hope it's close. I've noticed that she is starting to laydown more. When I would go and check up on her right before I went to bed she was always just standing in one spot. When I saw her last night I noticed she was laying down. When she got up I saw that she had been licking at her udder. Another thing Ive noticed is her rectum looks more sunken in and she tends to stand hunched over a little more. She is giving me to many mixed signals and is driving me insane. Lol. I already have plans to take her to the vet if nothing happens this weekend.
 
I have a heifer that will calve in 2 months.  She'll be 23 months of age when she calves.  She looks like she could pop next week!  Know when she'll clave as she was AI'd once and never exposed to a bull.  For the life of me, I'd think you'd know...Sorry you're having such a time.  I agree, have someone palate her.
 
As the days keep going by my anxiety increases. I had a dairy farmer come take a look at her. He saw that her vulva is starting relax and he used a stethoscope to listen for a heart beat and he told me that he believes there's a calf in there! Im hoping he's right! He's gonna come to check on her again Monday. Her discharge seems to be more yellowish now.
 
Startin to think hoax on this one.  Your heifer's name isn't Te'o' is it  ;D
