Thank you all, but I am just able to share stuff I know with someone who did everything right, and got dealt a less than perfect hand. This is for me, a case of "see one, do one, teach one".....we just tube fed her baby, via email, step by step....she watched videos on how to do it, I answered any questions and addressed here fear, and she finally felt confident enough to do it....she did it with great success, the baby tolerated it fine, and she dissolved into tears of happiness! So we have jumped another hurdle and she is able to do one more thing to help her baby survive. We are not out of the woods with this pup...she isnt gaining weight like she should be....hopefully, with more precise tube feedings, she will start t gain weight....but that is my biggest concern for her right now.... |
