I agree with Winston's Mom on your checking your measurements.
I've never dealt with a situation such as yours. Didn't I see where you posted that her eyes aren't open yet? WOW!! I've never had one go beyond 17 days before opening their eyes.
If she's doing well and not crying in between feedings, she sounds like she's getting enough. I've had one that took 5 weeks before I saw any real growth on her and then she starting gaining nicely. I didn't feed her more than she could take at a feeding....just made her plump, not too tight in the belly and fed her often rather than a lot at one time.
The usual recommended amount I've seen to feed newborns is 1 cc per ounce of body weight. The amount increases with the pup's age and activity level but at least that's a starting point for you to go by. |
