This was the smallest who weighed in at 4.75 and is now 6 ounces. Just looked at Rowan's and Emmy's weights at day 3 and it is very similar. Here I thought the weight gain was slow but steady and it seems theirs was the same.
We had a bit of a blip. Her lower milk station was impacted so the vet said antibiotics till they loosen up. From past experience, I say that is day 3 or 4. She has only had 2. So now her tummy is a tad upset as antibiotics do that so only Nathan can get her to eat. heh This is very minor. But it is obvious that one station bothers her. By tonight it will be looser and each day even more so.
What can I say about the pups. They are strong. They find mom more times than not. It's not by feel that they find her nipples. Many are quite small still but will change as the week goes on. The more they feed, the more they become pronounced. I hear them sniffing to find her. It's a riot.
They are totally ruining her hair. I guess soon I will have to get her shorter. We shall see. They crawl through her hair, over her back and all around her neck. But she so adores them.
