Hi Julie,
I slept a lot off and on yesterday and last night, so I feel pretty good this morning.
I just checked on the babies and Domino, and everyone is doing fine
I weighed the babies last night around 7:00, and everyone had gained except baby #1 (the girl). Her weight was 74g which is 6g under her birth weight of 80g. I didn't want to panic, and was told it was probably because the babies are getting situated finding their favorite nipple. If she had lost more by this morning, I would have supplemented her.
I weighed her this morning and she was back up above her birth weight at 84g. ! I will weigh the whole lot in a few hours and evaluate everyone
I am complete ready to either bottle feed or tube feed if I have to, but don't want to step in too early. I will continue to check weights every 12 hrs until there is contstant weight gain.
I can't tell you how proud of Domino I am
. She is being a wonderful mama! She is eating, drinking and using the litter box regularly. She wants to spend most of her time with the little ones. Leaving them only to potty, eat and drink. I have also held her food up for her while she is nursing so she can eat. She sure seems to appreciate it.
I will be taking better pictures of the little ones today. I will post some in a bit.
