5 Days Old: Updates are at the End Always

Here is the gallery.

I am trying the little one on 3ml plus .05 and she seems to be gaining slow and steady. This will only be the 3rd time with this amount so we will see what a 24 hour period does.

I apologize for being so late. I may have duplicated videos. I don't know. I am a bit overwhelmed and I apologize. It is difficult to keep this schedule, eat yourself and groom plus videos, galleries and blogging. I'm trying. I keep getting later and later.

All the rest are gaining quite well. 

Here are the videos. Be sure to check out the shorts.

They are true beauties!

Alanza has had a decent weight gain today. I added .05 to her regular 3ml of formula and she is gaining - slow and steady. Dennis seems to be very worried so he will feed just 3ml and we probably won't have a gain overnight but hopefully tomorrow during the day. I may get surprised. She does like the formula. All day I try her on mom before and after feedings but she is probably just getting a slight bit. I keep hoping she starts feeding from mom. The concern will be the others will push her out of the way so I imagine I will have to sit with her and protect her when she does start feeding from mom. At the very worse, if she is still gaining and hanging on, at 3 weeks I can start feeding her food. That is still 16 days away. I hope I am alive by then. LOL The other pups find mom and manage to gain weight all on their own. I looked at Alanza and she has such a pretty face. I just know with all that I am putting into this, she best live and thrive. We shall see how the journey goes but right now, gain is a positive and she is lively. She crawls all over at times.

Darlah you are doing just fine juggling all that!! Both Nami and Sage have beautiful puppies and thanks to your efforts (and Dennis) Alanza is starting to come around. I keep praying that she will latch on soon and alleviate some of your efforts.

Thanks, Kim and John. It is so labour intensive but it is a labour of love!

Again, happy to read positive news about little Alanza's weight gain. You've got a ton on your plate, Darlah. Your dedication to all that you do is heartwarming.
