In general, I can't -- but I've raised Hollands for over 15 years and those little faces sure looked "Hollandish" LOL

OK I have a question....how do I know that thebabies are getting enough nutrients..I mean I know that they aresupposed to look like they swallowed a ping pong ball, and they usuallydo, but after like 10 hours of not eating they start squirming aroundand trying to nurse on each other. Should I just ignore it? Or should Igive them a supplement in addition to their mother's milk. I feed themtwice a day, is this too much, or not enough? And I some one said thatthe mother should feel wet if she is producing milk...she is very dry:?

[pamnock]

Unless mom is leaking milk, whe won't feelwet. The milk will come in at about day 3, when you'll noticethe milk glands to be very full for a couple days until milk productionlevels out.

You can let the babies nurse again after 10 hours if they are appearing to be very hungry. Three times a day is fine.

Thank you SOOOO much! I usually nurse them at7am, 5 PM, and then if they are hungry at 10pm. I wasnt quite sure ifit was OK for the mom. Yesterday she actually turned on her side without me having to hold her down, to feed the babies...it lasted like aminute, but I figured it was progress

[ayglnu13]

HAHA I am so obsessive about them though! Likewhen I watch TV they sit in their box next to me, when I read they sitwith me, when I go on the computer they sit near me, when I wake up inthe morning the first thing I do is go check on them, and it is thelast thing I do before I go to bed, I just dont want anything to happento them

Awww, I am so glad that the kits seem to be doingall right. They are adorable. I too was fascinated with how quicklythey change, they say children grow up fast but thank God it is not asfast as kits!
