You won't have to stimulate after about 2 weeks. Then they go on their own. I had a litter I had to hand raise as I lost their momma. I stimulated them before and after each feeding. They would always pee readily, many times before and after, but would only poop either before or after and occasionally they would miss pooping for a feeding. If one missed, I wrote it down and then made sure they went next time. Luckily no one missed more than one feeding in a row, so I did not have to worry.

Good luck -- I have never heard about a momma being that aggressive with her cleaning duties either.
