Their weight gain sounds good, should double in a week. I supplemented my little maltese (2 oz.) with Esbilac, 1 cc per oz. of body weight. I warmed it and let him suck it out of an eyedropper. The bottles flooded him. If you have the time I would recommend putting him on mom alone every hour. Their weight gain is so much faster with moms milk. Aspiration of the supplement is dangerous for these little guys. If mine had been able to nurse I definitely would have put him on her very often. Good luck. |
