Please help! Starting to feel hopeless.

Thank you so much, and no Maple has not lost any weight. I’m gonna try to take Ginny to the vet in the morning! I gave her critical care super often throughout the day although she was being fussy. Is there any substitution for simethicone and what would be the best option for bloat medicine or what to look out for?

Feed during the night as well if she isn’t eating anything for herself.
A prescribed medication from the vet is what is needed if it is bloat as it is a serious condition. This guide explains Digestive Disorders: Diarrhea - Bloat - GI Stasis (No Gut Movement) And Not Eating

this is the finale to our long thread hopefully. I just got the results from the vet! She got bloodwork done which came out all good, no bloating or anything in her gut. The weight loss was actually caused by a small ulcer in her mouth! She said I’m in the clear to start reintroducing veggies for both pigs and to give cisapride and meloxicam if maple is ever feeling off, along with massaging her tummy because she tends to be a little gassy. Ginny was prescribed sucralfate for her mouth along cisapride and meloxicam!

I want to sincerely thank you for responding so quickly and detailed to all of my odd scenarios with them. Ginny and Maple appreciate it! :)

I thought I should leave just one more post on this thread because I'm so thankful for all of your help and for how the recovery went! Both Ginny and Maple have made a full recovery and have fabulous poops, eating habits, weights, etc! I'm so thankful for your help @Piggies&buns. I'm currently a sophomore in college and had these babies since I was in highschool, only a few months into school I was nervous about the transition and taking them to my apartment. But, this forums has given me so much overall. Many thanks to you, from me, Maple and Ginny :)
