[Lady of Yorkies]

I had a 1.7 ounce girl born yesterday. Last night she wasn't breathing so well and looked skinnier than she should. I thought that maybe she wasn't nursing so I tube fed her. This morning she was breathing better but thin again so I tube fed her again.

My problem is that now she looks thin again and I can't get her to take the tube into her stomach. Last night no problem, the tube went and went and went. Today, I can't get it to go past her elbow. I can't remember because I have had so little trouble getting tubes to go down but isn't the measurement to the bottom of their ribs? Thanks, Sylvia
