She did well, I was a nervous wreck! I gave her vanilla ice cream between puppies. I nutridrop all gums of puppies. She wanted to get out of the box for a while, the puppies are latching on and I can't quite tell if there is milk. If there isn't what can I do to get it going? |
Congratulations. At times milk doesn't come in for 24 hours......As the babies get stronger, they will suckle harder and bring in the milk. The first 24 hours they are getting colostrum.
Whelping pudding is always the best along with a POP shot by tomorrow morning.
Whelping pudding, cottage cheese, cheese, 5 meals a day.
