Oh! Congrats on the new babies! :p |
The heat pad should be on ONLY ONE SIDE and UNDER the whelping bed on low temp...so if mom gets too warm she can move away from it. If you have a pad that she cant dig on take out the bedding and replace it with something like a carpet and a hand towel for her to dig on...it will be much less disruptive for the babies. You have to be persistent in getting these kids to latch on...OPEN their little mouths and put them on a teat by pressing gently down on the muzzle (latching down on it)...if their strong and hungry they will latch tight! DO NOT give your kids neutrical!!! suppliment with esbliac, just born or goats milk they MUST be feed every two hours or they will get weak and dehydrate! Weigh them three to four times a day to monitor weight gain (keep a log)....it is not rare for them to lose a bit of weight the first 24 hours but after that you should see a consistant weight gain. hope this helps...if you need help please call me anytime of day or night 503-777-4224 |

Good luck i hope everything works out!! |
Sounds like a good idea going to do it now.:D |
How are the babies doing?? |
Any updates on the babies? |
Congratulations on your new babies. Hope all turns out well. I would be scared to death! They are so tiny. Please let us know how the little guy is doing. Hope he is eating by now. |
I spoke with her she said little man may be dehydrated she hears gurgle on the lungs, his skin stays up on his neck and he continues to spot bleed through his cord (which her vet told her not to worry about it). I suggested to get him to the vet for fluids under the skin, a lung check and quick stop!! |
Kimberly and Stacy... ...you guys ever consider getting a 1-800 help line? I mean honestly! You guys could make a fortune! You could get a cool slogan, like, "We Help you Whelp" or something...;) |
Oh poor little guy I hope he gets stronger. It is good that she had you to help her Kimberly. |
I"m sorry, this really ticks me off, a Vet would say to NOT worry about symptoms such as these???? WTH ? |
Congrats on the babies!!! How very exciting !! Glad you found the help you needed for your little one!!! Hope he gets better!! |
