IT WAS A LONG HAUL WE DID LOOSE ONE JUST COULD NTO GET ANY MOVEMENT--- AND ONE PUP APPARENTLY TOOK 31 MINUTES TO GET GOING..
THE ONE I GOT GOING DID HAVE SOME REACTION WHEN I PUT MY FINGER IN HER MOUTH.. TH EONE I COULD NOT GET GOING NEVER HAD ANY MUSCLE MOVEMENT...
WE HAD 2 SLOW TO NURSE.. AND HAD TO GET TO THE SPOON FOR COLLECTION AND SYRINGE FOR FEEDING.. BUT-- THEY MANAGED SOME COLOSTRUM.
OVERNIGHT EARLENE AND COLLEEN DID MANAGE SOME PERSONAL ATTENTION AND THEY ARE NURSING..
WHEN A PUP WILL NOT OPEN IT'S MOUTH IT IS A BAD THING-- TOOK SME HANDLING EXPERTISE.
I WONDER IF YOU ALL HAVE HAD MY "DON'T TOUCH THE FACE" LECTURE..
IN AN ANYWHERE'S NEAR NORMAL SITUATION, A BABY ANIMAL MUST HAVE THE INSTINCT TO MOVE THIER HEAD TOWARD ANYTHING THAT TOUCHES HIS FACE-- THAT IS HOUW THEY FIND THE NIPPLE TO NURSE-- IF THE BABY LACKS THAT INSTINCT IT WILL STARVE AND DIE. HORSES...PUPPIES
EVEN PEOPLE FALL INTO THE CATAGORIE OF MOVIN TOWARD THE TOUCH-- WHERE THAT BECOME CRITICAL IS THA MANY PEOPLE IN TRYING TO HELP A PUP FIND THE HIPPLE, TRY AND STEER THE HEAD--- THIS IS A BIG NO NO BECAUSE THE PUP WLL THINK IT HAS TO MOVE TOWARD YOUR TOUCH--
PROBLEM IS MANY MIDWIVES DO NOT SEEM T O KNOW THAT -- AND YOU GET SME VERY FRUSTRATED MOTHERS AND BABIES--- I WONDER IF THIS TOUCH IS RELATED TO AN AUTISM SITUATION BECAUSE AUTISTIC CHILDREN HAVE STRANGE REACTIONS TO BEING TOUCHED.. I THINK...
I AM GOING TO HAVE SOME TROUBLE WITH THEI DD BECAUSE I CAN NOT STAY AWAKE - I NEED ANOTHER NAP OR TWO
WE HAVE SOME FINAL PREP FOR THE ARRIVAL OF THE CP.S-- SOME WILL START DRIBBLING IN TODAY...
THE FLAGPOLE IS UP-- AND A THING OF BEAUTY--
WE HAVE TO STUFF ENVELOPEWS WITH THINGS I HAVE NOT GOT READY YET..
THANK HEAVENS WE HAD NO COMMENTS LAST NIGHT BECAUSE DISQUS WENT DOWN WITH ALL THE EXPLORE ACTION.. THAT WAS A BLESSING.
I NEED A NAP
TO BE CONTINUED..
