She has had 6 pups, we called the local vet to make sure all her signs were normal, I will be running up to Petsmart shortly to grab some nutri-drops.

She's tending to all her pups and licking them one by one, they are all moving and whining around. She is producing milk and we are waiting to see if she nurses fine, we have tried helping the pups find the nipples by drawin a lil milk and putting their mouths to it, no luck. I am givin her a few minutes to see if she can get them to latch. How long before I start bottle feeding if they do not latch?

I am sorta thinking she might have a 7th by now I'm stressed out but keeping calm.
