Is anyone watching April?

Well, it’s not like one constantly watches. I just peek in every now and then while doing other time wasting activities like CC. :slight_smile:

Wellllll
April has been with us for the last two dinners in restaurants.
You would think this was my pregnancy

She looks pretty calm for a very pregnant lady. About 8,000 watchers zonked out… Only 67,000 are watching as we speak.

There are also 100,000 in the UK watching…

The webcam is down right now for me. Is anyone else getting a live feed? It was working earlier this morning. I wonder if April is giving birth and they’re cutting off the live cam until it’s over.

April doesn’t seem that interested in the shared hay. She usually pulls it out and throws it over her back while Oliver watches.

Watching April, too. Yeeks hope she isn’t too old to be pregnant. This seems prolonged

I just pulled a live feed up so don’t think it is happening yet. Do we not get to see the live birth? Thought that’s what we all were waiting for.

April is 15. That is as old as they get in the wild, but apparently they can live up to 25 years in zoos. So she is like a 50 yr old woman giving birth… We have one friend - she is 53, and her 3 yr old toddler was a big “oops, surprise!” at 50.

April the Giraffe, aka the Agony (watching her try to lie down) and the Ecstasy (witnessing the love between her and zookeeper Alyssa).

On the day’s update they said they will leave the feed up during the birthing. The problem has been the feed going down. You can go to their face page when that happens for information.
I really would like to see it as it happens but at least know that it will be taped.

The zookeeper just waved at the 124,000 fools like me watching April in real time. :slight_smile:

Waiting
Third restaurant where I just had to check her condition.

My lame excuse for watching is that I am on the beach and bored…

It has occurred to me that this just like waiting for a grandkids to be born.
But I am spoiled as DIL was overdue by 3 days and they gave her meds and she delivered 3 hours later.
She barely broke sweat.
I had a C-section.
So this is all new territory for me…I cannot imagine if this was a child I was waiting to be born!!

That baby is really moving tonight.

Is this the link folks are watching to see April? The other ones I tried were not working and a few had things that LOOKED LIKE giraffe births but weren’t April having the baby.
