When will she start eating her food again? I was reading the sticky's but have not seen one yet that answers those questions... but I'm still reading...
It's a Oxytocin Shot.....Good she's drinking water. Traces of blood is normal, occassionaly you may see some clotted blood....she's expelling some of the dead tissue. This spotting will continue for sometimes 6 weeks, maybe longer. If discharge becomes foul smelling, then you should worry. Don't be too concerned. The first 24 to 48 hours she will be reluctant to eat, not wanting to leave her babies. You may have to hand feed her, just make sure she has fresh food. Entice her, Whelping pudding is a great enticer and helps bring in the milk. Scrambled eggs, Cheese sprinkled over her food. Give the Goat's Milk recipe I gave you.
