6 Days Old
Alanza had her 1st feeding from mom staying latched on the entire time. I do not think it was productive as in taking much mom's milk in but this is progress, imho.
She is no longer losing. Over night she seems to hold her own and in daytime she shows slight gains.
If you look at the videos, you can see her activity. Be sure to look at the shorts which has Alanza's activity. There are also sequence photos that you can see her movement.
How are the other siblings doing? They find mom on their own. They are gaining. They are active and Sage treats them like they are extra special beings including the little one.
Sage's back milk stations are finally soft. That took a bit.
I will continue to post a followup here in this post tonight. It will be at the end of this entry.
The siblings - are great but do push Alanza out of the way huntin g for milk so I have to sit the entire time protecting her.
I have added more photos and will be adding videos. Everyone gained tonight. Alanza just minimal but the same for one other. At this weight, I checked the other pups gains a bit more than she is now and the weight gain is similar. She did try to eat off mom twice. I had to spend all the time protecting her. One feeding was better than the 2nd. But progress. One day at a time. Bonus - no losing weight.
