So cute! Glad that all is going well! You can still call them Mopsy, Flopsy and Cotton until you know for sure.

My baby Tegan has two names, Tegan Syndod, as I called her Syndod (Welsh for surprise) until I was sure whether she was a Tegan (beautiful - girls name) or a Tecwen (beautiful & blessed - boys name).
 
Awwwwwww, Gorgeous mini piggies x) x)
 
Omg they are soooo cute, I think I am having a hyperglycaemic attack drool

I know! I can hear lots of noises already! I am hoping to reunited poppy and Honey soon :) /but it wont be for a while yet I think she's missing her so i'm giving her lots of cuddles and attention as mum and babies have each other! X
 
The babies look like they are coming along really well!

You can test how mummy and auntie are getting along by letting them meet on neutral ground and see how that goes. If they get along well, I would bring over the pups as soon as mummy starts looking for them.
If mummy and auntie don't get along or mummy doesn't want her anywhere near her babies, I would leave things be. Otherwise you can try and see whether auntie can move in after some longer and longer meetings.

It has worked for me when a (submissive) auntie couldn't cope at all well with being on her own. Just don't force it - let the piggies decide.
 
Mum is playing with them this morning! Honey is used to being on her own! she seemed okay when poppy was pregnant!
Jessica

will try that but i dont want to take mum away from babies too soon i'll leave it another week
 
Hi every one me and mum sexed them again today! two boys! and a girl as the two boys Willy poked out! so I'm glad they'll have company and one wont be left on there own! Xx
It was all a commotion this morning as i cleaned them out! X

They are so cute and so beautiful. Guinea-pig babies are amazing. I just jokingly told my bf I want babies again... I mean guinea-pig babies, but we can't have any more piggies!
 
Awe thank you almost been a week and all okay! must separate the boys before the 14th feb! i don't want sister or mum to get pregnant on valentines day! LOL
