Karen~ I just reread what I wrote and think it sounded short...I'm sorry....that's not how it was intended. I didn't realize that it was sounding like that until I just reread it. Going to bed before Emma and Landon are up asking, "Why are you so tired AGAIN, Mommy?" This has been the question from them all week now. ;) Or they also ask, "Are you still tired, Mommy because you're eyes aren't opening big like they are suppose to." ;) It's called swollen, tear stained, tired eyes...but to them, it's just "mommy looking weird"...their exact words.

Tammy You have done everything to take care of Livi & the babies, don't be so hard on yourself most of us follow Dr. orders cause they are suppose to know whats best. I have gave this same med. to my girl with good results. I think these babies are like us what works for one don't always work for another. most people i know take tylenol, asprin works better for me i hope you are resting now. hugs to all of you |
Tammy I hope today finds the puppies strong and eating well. May the Lord give you the strength you need to get through this. |
Tammy, You and your babies were the first thing I thought about this morning. I am so hoping things look better for you today, and so wishing someone was close enough to help you out. |
Tam, this is the first thing I looked for this morning when I got up. I just want you to know that Livi, the babies, you and your family are all in my thoughts. Everyone is pulling for all of you. Sending lots of hugs and love :). |
Don't be so hard on yourself! You have had no sleep and you are doing all of this for the first time. The tube feeding will help you get some sleep and it is not hard to do. You do need someone experienced to show you how to do it. If the mother is not going to be able to nurse the puppies, tube feeding them will really help you and it will ensure that they get enough to eat. Let me see if I can find someone near Springfield who could help you. Lisa Farmer TipTop Yorkshire Terriers Quote:

sending good thoughts and prayers your way!!!!!!!!!! |
Tammy, I have not been online here at YT very much but had heard the news and just had to come and support you with prayers and optimistic thoughts. I have been in your shoes and this is the part of breeding that most non-breeders know nothing about. The pain and anguish, the fear and sleepless nights. I remember being on the phone with my wonderful friends crying my eyes out and praying for miracles. Please know that each and every breeder here is praying for you and supporting you in any way that we possibly can. We have all been in this situation and can feel your heartbreak. Tammy, if there is anything at all that I can do, please do not hesitate to call on me. I may not be able to be there physically to help, but my heart is supporting you 100%. Our Thoughts and Prayers are with you all ...... :heart to |
Tammy, I saw your post on FB so came here to see what is happening. I can not help you with any advice but wanted to tell you that I am thinking of you and sending up prayers for you, Livi, and the babies. Please know that I support you completely and I know that you can and will get through this. I hope you are able to get some much needed rest today and that all the furbabies will start to improve as the day goes on. I am so sorry you have had to go through this and am sending you big (((HUGS))) my friend. I now see there is a support thread going, should have posted this there, I'm sorry. |
I'm still here Tammy with moral support and prayers. :hug: :hands: We all know the strength behind YT prayers and you, Livi, and her pups have so many prayers coming your way. |

I prepare for every litter to the fullest. Make sure I have every concievable med on hand. Plasma, Lactose ringers, you name it I have it ready......but, nothing prepared me for the moment my girl started going down. I had taken all the necessary precautions. POP shot given after the whelp, vet checked, etc..... When you get these pups eating properly.....you've only got another week or so until they can lap that goat's milk on their own. My girl's pups began losing weight for a couple of days, until I switched them to goat's milk, after my repro vet screamed at me to get them off of Just Born. |
Thanks again!! We have decided to take Cinnamon to the vet this morning because she is now very weak and not able to suckle. We also decided that we are going to go ahead and take all three puppies and Livi along. I am not playing around with any of this and the fact that the vet is closed tomorrow make me nervous. So, off to the vet we all go. My story, along with other breeders that have gone through their own experiences, these all should be stickied in the breeder's section so every single time someone says that we make money from breeding, we can just post the link for them to read! Wish us luck at the vet....I am hoping for some positive uplifting words of advice! |
Good luck at the vet's today ... we're flooding the Heaven's with Prayers for Livi, her pups and your family. |
:hands: Tammy, my prayers are with you, Levi and her babies. :ghug: |

I am so sorry you are going thru all this, like Mary said you name it I have it home, but nothing prepares you for something like this. Money, I laugh when people ask me how much money I make with each litter. :eek: they have NO idea even when a whelping and rearing goes textbook, my expenses outweigh my gains. I will keep checking for updates, if you need anything let me know. hugs, Carmen in nj |
