Sarafina's littlest baby. He has a name!!

I am still worried about the smallest white boy. It's like he doesn't know HOW to suckle.

I have been trying to help Sarafina (6 babies is a LOT to nurse) by bottle feeding them twice a day. Most will take a little bit, but not this tiny girl. he refuses. I do get some in him by using a syringe, but this is risky...I don't want to choke him.

So I took all the other siblings out and kept tiny with mom, and he still couldn't settle in to a nipple (even with all them to choose from.)

I am hoping that he nurses when I am not looking. he seems OK, just small. But I am afraid for him.

Can we have a few extra prayers for this fragile one?
