New day. Since she had them on Monday, I guess this is day three, so we should go for tail docking today, but I am real concerned with their weights. Got a scale yesterday, and used ounces. I should have used grams to be more accurate. Here were their weights yesterday, in order of birth...
4.95
4.25
4.20
4.75
4.15
and today...
4.70
4.20
4.15
4.75
4.10
no one is gaining, most have lost, they have been at teat almost constantly since dinnertime last night. Mom was panting pretty hard late last night, and felt pretty warm to me, I took temp and it said 102.5 I guess not too bad, but I suspect she is drying up. I have been giving her puppy food, cottage cheese and a little ice cream, all of which she has gobbled down (and has diarrhea from) I think it is time for a call to the vet.
Still no pics, it keeps saying the file is too big. grrr
