hi Tiffany congrats on your litter...

I begin weaning at about 4-5 weeks, feeding quality dry puppy food wet down and mashed, mixing canned food is fine but I would do less in the coming days and more quality dry mixed in... feed babies 3 times a day, as well have a small bowl of dry and water available 24-7.

first vaccination 6-8 weeks depending on the babies size remember DO NOT use LEPTO a series of three every 3-4 weeks.

Worming is not a shot but a liquid given every two weeks 2-3 times. Consult your vet as to the one to use and the correct dosage is according to weight.

hope this helps
Kimberly
