Advice for chihuahua hand rearing

Hello,
Im having a really bad time at the moment
my chihuahua gave birth monday night 1 week early
NIGHTMARE BIRTH - she was a big chihuahua, healthy, pedigree etc etc

Gave birth to two 110g boy 65g girl

Next day went to the vets and one was dead in her, they got it out

That night hand feeding - morning girl died mouth open all the time, trouble breathing

Mum went down hill

They spade her but utrus leaked (i think thats what they said -im so tried)

She died this morning - my heart is breaking

My other chihuahua gave birth 12 days ago so i gave her the remaing pup, she loves it

But the pup wont suckle on its own so im hand feeding while putting it on her nipple. Its lively and very active

It now weight approx 96g

Im feeding it on welpi, 1 ml every hour in day, every 2 hours at night 1-2ml

Im after any advice from breeders that will help me, any tips etc etc

Im so upset and seems my girl that died is alot older that what i thought and this has happened before as there was scars from old surgery when they cut her open

THE OLD OWNER failed to tell me, i told him i wanted to have a litter from her and he said thats fine IM SO ANGRY THIS COULD HAVE BEEN AVOIDED

Please dont shoot me down, i did everything correct, healthy bitch, good size, good pedigree etc etc
