I don't know, I spayed so I didn't have to worry about it again. I've never had eclampsia weeks after they were born, and would take pups away immediately.

This mama quit her last litter at three weeks and I raised them from there. Right now, they are getting colostrum or have already gotten it. That is what I was hoping for. if I have to raise them now, we will be alright. I am doing everything just the way you said you did and that is per my vet's instructions.
