After the guinea pig goes into labor, she should not be touched, and for seven days after she has her babies, neither her or the babies should be handled at all except for if the food dish or water bottle are empty.

Note: make sure the father isn't near the mother when she has her babies. The father may try to hurt the babies or the mother.
