My mare is due anytime just playing the waiting game; she started bagging up over a week ago. Have noticed a small round bulge on her lower right side of her belly area (not underneath) that looks like a soft lump kind of, yet doesn�t patrude much and is about 3"X 4" in size and its not hard. She seems perfectly fine, the size has not increased and I have heard this is normal, yet it has been there for about 5 days or more...should I be concerned and call a vet? I�ve watched it closely and her, but I�m becoming concerned.

Anyone seen this before? Any feedback would be appreciated. Thanks
