When I got Honey she was only 1.4 lbs and the first 2 weeks she did great and ate her hard dog food one morning I went in to get her and she had lost all of her balance and her bed was messed up I immediately gave her some karo syrup, she came around but this went on for a couple of days and when I got her check he said she had a parasite 'giardia" that was making her have diarhea and keeping her blood sugar out of wack, she was put on an antibotic and I kept karo in her water and had to syringe feed her for 2 weeks, then after we got off the antibotic I gave her nutr-cal once a day for a week now she is great, I haven't had to give her anything except love for the past 3 weeks. They were scared hers might be a shunt at first, but thank goodness it was only the parasite and they can come in contact with it anywhere and make them real sick if not taken care of. Good luck with your baby I hope this helped.
