Woke up this morning to find she now has 4 kittens, 3 solid black and 1 black and white
The last born is the biggest

Baby 1 89 grams
Baby 2 80 grams
Baby 3 105 grams
Baby 4 115 grams

Baby 2 is tiny but feeding great and pushes the others away from the nipples so i think he will be fine

I know i need to weight them daily but as the first 2 are tiny should i be doing it more often

Maybe twice a day just to make sure there gaining weight xx

First one was born at 2am this morning, I just weighed them tonight at 7pm

Baby 1 is 99g so up 10
Baby 2 is 92g up 12
Baby 3 116g up 11
Baby 4 123g up 7

Weighing them once a day should be fine. They seem to be gaining well!

Really happy with the kittens progress today, all have nice full tummies and are nursing beautiful, I was worried that they wouldn't have gained enough as Elsa is out of the box a lot and usually sits in the lounge room with me but she does go back to them when they cry

Kitten 1: 109 grams +10
Kitten 2: 100 grams +8
Kitten 3: 124 grams +8
Kitten 4: 131 grams +8
All have gained 15-20 grams since birth
