 tried the sponge method
I'm trying everything. Just tried the new sponge method without any luck. Tried tube feeding, but she won't swollow enough of the tube. So far all I can do is a little formula with the eye dropper. I'm doing this about every hour. She won't take much and that's ok. I don't want to over feed her, just tiny bits at a time.
I have been tube feeding a runt from a different liter that is now 3 weeks old and weighs 5 ozs. She was being pushed out by her much bigger siblings. She also got one on one feedings with mom, with me supplementing until she could nurse long enough to get full.
I just hope this girl will be ok.
She makes my other runt look hudge..
Prayers for this little one please.
Thank you to those who responded..will keep you posted. |
