HELP PLEASE

1 tbs? Are you using a 1 cc syringe to feed? Even with the goats milk formula (which is meant to be only temporary until you can get the correct formula), should be thin enough to be fed with a syringe.

I Bushy has eaten 1 tbs at 11:00 am and after she got full went back to sleep. This makes day 2 and she is starting to suck and is very alert.

Is this the baby that weighs 3.8 oz? 1 tsp (5ml) may be at the low end of what she should get.

Does anyone know when her eyes might open?

Eyes normally open around 5 weeks old.

How often should she poop and pee?

Are you stimulating to pee and poop with each feeding? And how often are you feeding? They almost always pee with every feeding / stimulation. They do not necessarily poop every time... and if she just started eating it may take a while.

P.S. She loves Goat Milk, Yogurt, and Heavy Cream

Remember that is a temporary substitution until you can get the Esbilac with pre and probiotics!

I just skimmed through your whole thread... I saw you were originally looking for a place to take them to be cared for... are you still looking for help? If so it may be good to start a thread with your general location.. something like "Rehabber Needed near Charlotte, NC". Many folks are very busy and don't have time to read all the threads, but they'll usually take a moment if it is a post in their general vicinity.
