Hi, all!
I'm fostering a bottle baby (about 3 weeks old) and she's doing great, feeding, urinating when I stimulate her but I can't seem to get her to poop. Is there a trick to this? Should I massage her belly. I've tried stimulating her anus with a wet paper towel and all she does is urinate. Yesterday the head of our rescue group got her to poop, but I'm not having luck today. Advice greatly appreciated! She weights 8 ounces now!
