Hi everyone, the baby is doing well :joy:
Sorry I couldn't post till now, she's been keeping me busy! Man I knew it would be a lot of work but I had no idea! lol But she's totally melting my heart, she knows my scent now and since I'm the only one that feeds her (hubbys afraid he's going to hurt her and won't hold her still enough lol) she's definitely bonding with me as mommy. :heart: As soon as I put my hand in her carrier she wobbles out looking for me and if I put her on the bed to walk around for a minute or two she immediately runs to my closest hand. She seems very strong and so much more active the past two days, probably since her eyes are now open. Is it normal for them to start getting a bundle of energy at this age, she just moves and climbs sometimes with no real destination :lol: My only concern is she's not really gaining weight, today is the 5th day since I've gotten her and she's been eating every 4 hours, usually 2cc sometimes 3 but it's hard to say because a lot of it spills all over her, but after every feeding she has a full/big looking tummy.
I didn't start the abs yet, I saw lilspaz post, but I'm still a little concerned about the clicking I sometimes hear in her breathing, but it's really only when she's eating so I don't think it's necessarily resp. At least I have it on hand if she seems to need it, just going to keep a close eye. Oh and her tail is a little better, I've been soaking it 2-3 times a day, but I can only do so for about 2 minutes before she starts squirming like crazy. But overall the actual bites look the same but her tail is no longer red/swollen. I'll try to post some pics tonight. Thanks again everyone!
PS- She still needs a name, I'm having a hard time thinking of one I like. I was thinking of something that meant survivor/warrior/strong something along those lines or something meaning tiny/baby etc lol Suggestions welcome!
