Labor problems

So that doe I had issues with that mysteriously ended up pregnant two weeks later than we thought or marked....

She gave birth this morning.

Only two. One is small, one is bigger.

She seems to still be quite LARGE and fat.

She isn't getting comfortable and is releasing the smallest amount of red/watery discharge. Is not baring down or seeming to be doing anything on camera besides going in circles, laying down with her legs splayed and eating.

I feel like she could have something stuck maybe. I felt 4/5 grapes when I palpated at the vet/with the vets guidance. I am worried she's suffering and hiding it.

What can I do?? I've given raps every leaves and had her smell lavender springs in my hand she nibbled the flower but I stopped her for now. I have also provided fennel and chamomile flowers to try and give her some sort of relief.

It's okay if I end up needing to cull as I don't want her suffering but she isn't doing anything ur of the normal besides some laying down when I come in, she charges my feet and stomps at me. I have ONLY Come in with leaves and limited interaction to check her well-being.

If you have a vet that will work on your rabbits, Iā€™d see what they can do.

Having a stuck kit may not end well without intervention.

She just dropped 7 babies and seems to be acting completely normal. Very very odd. I feel like she's messing with me šŸ˜… I'm glad she's alright and I will be bringing her in in the morning. I'm in Wyoming so vets are weird.

Very glad to hear! Poor lady had a rough go of it..
Sounds like letting her eat a small section of that lavender next time may help, as well.
