Senior Yorkie Talker | What is normal for growing puppies? Our puppies are 8 days old today. 3 of them are chubby while the other girl is at a good weight. They are all gaining an once a day sometimes more. My concern is Momma has a uterine infection and is on Clavamox and a shot of Lutalyse for 4 days. I know twitching is normal but what about crying more? They seem to sleep and cry or whine. My Vet says as long as they are gaining weight they are ok???.. They never really used to cry but i dont know if as they get older they cry out more like real babies? thanks

| If they are gaining, warm, sleeping well, nursing well..they should be ok. Is mom diapering regular? I think the mom's anitbotic can make them a bit constipated.. I do not like crying, there really should be very little unless there is a reason...mom leaves nest, looking for a nipple, getting bumped off, getting away from the pack in the bed and looking for them... |

Senior Yorkie Talker | thank you Yes, they are gaining weight daily. About an ounce or two a day! They alternate between weight gain. They are all chubby. Yes, I think the one that cried all night was looking for her mom or had a belly ache. I rubbed her belly after 5 hours of crying and she rested well after that. Thank goodness they are all ok. Mom is doing good also. Done on antibiodics and starting to eat better. One puppy was kind of vomiting but just bubbles came up? That was 2 days ago and i did tell the Vet. Mom never stays in box. She only goes in to feed them and clean them and thats it. Once or twice i saw her sleeping while feeding them but after 15min she gets out. She leaves them constantly which probaly makes them cry. All are doing well though. thanks for the info Quote:
