EXPLANATION
Fremitus is the palpable vibratory sensation associated with increased blood flow in the middle uterine artery during pregnancy. It can first become detectable at approximately 80 to 120 days in cattle, depending on the animal and examiner. Thirty to sixty days is generally too early, while 180 to 190 and 210 to 220 days are later stages when the sign may already be well established.
