He still weighs 7.4 oz., so he hasn't lost any, but hasn't gained any either so that is the goal now to get some weight on him! He is starting to get his eyes open also, his sisters have been for several days now. I told my daughter today that he was getting better thanks to everyone here and all your good thoughts and prayers, thank you all so much!  |
I think that is wonderful, but maybe you need to call some vets to see if they can show you how to tube feed if the emergency arises. they can do it so easy, and they can also show you. baby needs to eat every two hours in order to gain some weight..I am not a pro, I just know from my own experiences....good luck...
I went at midnight to get a refresher on tube feeding, I was so nervous and had been many years since I had first learned how..thinking of you, keep us up on how that little one is doing..
