| Six weeks is still a baby, so it's perfectly normal. Congrats on your new baby, and good luck!

| Well thanks eveyone for your help and advice with Molly i've been a little worried over the last couple days, with her eating and sleeping, but feel a bit more relaxed now, just given her half of a weetabix with puppy milk she gulped the lot down then she was really playful for about 10 mins now she is flat out in front of fire, now i can relax and hopefully have a good nights sleep, didnt realise it was such hard work but its worth every minute especially when she's kissing/biting my ear to death....... |

| she is still VERY young... i know puppies sleep soemthing like 18 out of 24 hours.. maybe even more... Layla is a year and a half and she still has days where she sleeps more than others.. your pup is growing and everything is new and exciting and takes a lot of energy... as long as she is eating, drinking peeing and pooping.. sounds good! just make sure she is eating enough and frequently enough to maintain her bloodsugar... make sure he gums are pink.. not white |
