Hi everyone. I haven't posted for awhile.
I just got a new foster today. He is the youngest one I have had before. He is only about 1.5 weeks. So far, he has peed a couple times (no poop yet) and has eaten a little. However, he is having trouble latching on. I cut the bottle tip a little bigger so the flow was easier and am doing all the stuff with keeping them upright, etc.
I fed him about 5:30pm, then again about 8pm. He didn't eat for long, but he latched on well twice and drank for about 5 seconds each. He's now under a thick fleece blanket sound asleep next to me as I type this.
I'm still worried he isn't getting enough. Any suggestions/support/etc?
