The other is only on the island for a week a month and told me that they do not have the equipment or proper anesthetic to spay a dog her size. He point blank told me that it is not safe during the appointment I made for her last year around this time.

I am not employed, so work is not a concern for me, and I will have to order everything online, such as hemostats, milk, incase I have to feed the babies incase of an emergency, and all the necessities because we do not have a proper grocery store, such as "Walmart", here. My aunt used to be on call for pet emergencies and has delivered quite a few litters in her time, I have contacted her.

I wanted advice on what I should be feeding and doing to care for my baby girl at this time to make sure she's as healthy as can be.

Thank you for the advice so far.
If you knew this then why in the world get a male and a female instead of two females or two males unless you fully intended to breed them anyway? The more you try to defend your action s and decisions the more you are digging yourself into a hole. If you KNOW the vet care is so poor where you are what were you thinking to even consider a breeding where you likely will not have a c section option if as you say one vet is seldom there the other is no good? Where in this story is the best interest of the dog?
I am very curious where the dogs came from in the first place as the breeder obviously did not have their best interest in mind either.
