My last puppy lost her appetite and would not drink or eat. Had to give her 50% Dextrose by syringe 1/2 cc, she is only 1lb 4 oz...
You can pick the Dextrose up from your vet or you can mix sugar and water and give to her, every 2-3 hours. If she is just over 2 lbs, I would give her 3/4 of a cc...at a time. Be sure to give it slowly so it wont go into her lungs or she chokes.
Good luck, hope the baby is better soon.
