I'm bottle feeding 2 of the 3 c-section pups (one of them started nursing last night). Anyway, I have to FORCE them to drink 1 cc of milk, because they fight it from the start. I have been feeding them every 2 - 2 1/2 hours, throughout the night, and I weighed them this morning. Reminder: they were born yesterday morning, 7:45am.

Girl: birth weight was 6 oz. She now weighs 5.2 oz
Boy: birth weight was 7 oz. He now weights 6.1 oz

I will call my vet when they open, in 30 minutes, but I just need opinions from the pros, please.
