babies and a not so happy mom Yes, they are secluded from everyone else (2 other yorkies)
and the rest of the house. I have them in my pc room...have
a sofa to sleep on so I can be near but the new family has a
(child's) plastic fence around them; they are in a big plastic
container with a heating pad on one end; there is room for
Mom to get out and use potty pads and eat...
She hasnt eaten yet, nausea is getting less now so maybe she will
soon. She has drank water a couple of time...
I am going to try the butter trick...actually thought about doing
something like this but couldnt think of what...almost wished I had
brought home a placenta.
They are eight hours old now, not crying and sleeping in a huddle but I
am concerned about getting enough nutrition in them....when can
nutrical be introduced? I have plenty and the supplement I am giving
them has colostrum.
thank you for the suggestion!! |
