Our babies are a week old today, figured it was time for an update.
All little ones are doing well, and so is mama. All have gained a nice amount of weight, they have not doubled yet....but with 5 and sharing the milk supply I figure it could take a bit longer. All pups are now between 6 and 7ozs.
Miss T finished her antibiodics, and is producing a nice amount of milk. She is just about back to her old self. I am poking food in her like crazy. Before c section she weighed 7 pounds 6 ozs. After 5 pounds 2 ozs. (LESS than she weighed before getting pg) Now a week later she weighs 5 pounds 9 ozs. She is so so so so spoiled, SHE WILL NOT eat unless I hand feed her. NOR will she drink unless I hold the bowl for her. WHen I do she eats and drinks TONS, if I don't she won't touch it. I am up there 8 times a day holding her water dish, and LITERALLY picking up her canned food mixed with dry in my fingers for her to eat, she will NOT eat out of her dish, it has to be in my hand. AND she will ONLY eat if she is in the whelping box with the puppies. She LOVES LOVES LOVES whelping pudding and the puppy formula, I STILL have to hold the dishes for her. LOLLOL!
Just a few pics......I tried so hard to take pics.....they are too busy to get them individually......all I end up with is blurs. This is the best I could do for now.
First pic is the whole group....second pic is my smallest baby a girl weighing 6.2 ozs this is Harry Potters sister, with a lightning bolt on her head. The next one is one of the boys. (Can't tell which one, but was a nicer face shot.)
