Mom seems to be very very slowly losing weight. We kept a chart of her weight since the last time she had kits and she lost weight very slowly for a few months afterwards until she settled at a weight similar to her pre-pregnancy weight. I presume the same thing is happening here now. (Pre pregnancy weight was about 560g, she is now about 587g today, she was 589g this day last week and 593g the week before that.) She seems to be dropping a couple of grams and then gaining but the general trend is slowly downwards a couple of grams a week. I presume this is normal after pregnancy? Her droppings seem normal and she's as active as ever. She still feels nice and round!
All three appear to be feeding well at food time. The kits are now 11 weeks. Pixie is 308g and she still appears to be nursing a little. Maybe she's just tucking her head under mum's side as a comfort thing and mightn't actually be taking milk? It really does look like nursing though, she sticks her head in under mom, roots around, Annie fusses a little at her then they settle down like that for a few minutes.
Buddy has been separated almost a full week now. He is 288g and seems to be getting on okay. I'm hoping the cuddle buddies will arrive soon for him. Both kits are gaining weight quite steadily.
I'm probably worrying for nothing as usual, I just want to be sure!
