2 week old. Thank you ladies for your help. He is doing ok so far. Gracie keeps him warm & he does nurse from her. I just don't think he gets much. When he goes to nurse she starts licking him & he falls off & gives up. So I have been weighing him multiple times a day & he goes up while I feed him & then he goes back down. Like I said he was born dec 27 th & weighed 3.3 oz. and as of today I just weighed him & he is only 4.1 oz at 7:30 pm. But I am feeding him & I help Gracie with the poo & pee thing. His eyes are not open yet. When should they be opening ? The 3 week old little girl opened her eyes 2 days before she was 2 weeks old and she is doing great. They both are so sweet. I feel so helpless & am very determined to keep him alive & in good health. I also keep blankets over her box so no drafts get to them & they are in box next to me in my room so I can hear or see any thing going on. |
