Can you rub the back of her tongue while the nipple is in her mouth? That's worked for me a couple of times. What about putting a small amount of honey (or something sweet) on your fingers to see if she'll suck it? Good luck

Hey, I hope these get through!! Isn't she just the cutest thing? I have never seen such big eye on a cow. The umbilical infection is gone!! She has pneumonia now:shrug: but we are working on that! Still tube feeding her three times a day, but she seems to be getting stronger. Thank you all so very much for your most excellent advice!
