Make sure the mom has plenty of bedding material to nest with, keep them seperated from the other hamsters and let her mother them. Make sure she has her food bowl full and lots of water. If she seems to be having problems call a vet for help.

Make sure only the mother and the litter is in the cage, no other hamsters. Also make sure there is enough bedding for a nest to keep the litter warm, use a water bottle so the litter does not drown. Keep an eye out if the litter can slip through the bars, you might want to set the cage in a tub so if a baby gets out you can put it back. Don't mess with the litter or the mom for at least 2-3 weeks. Take care.
