Unhappy Help ! my baby "Tuffie" is sick...not nursing.

Some of you guys remember my London had a litter of 4 on July 26, there about to turn 2 weeks old this Thursday.
My only boy "Tuffie" suddenly stop nursing (he was the biggest one ) I remember I weight him sunday and he was 14.2 o.z and I didn't notice anything wrong with him that day (but I was so sick my self with a cold) next day monday I weight them again and I notice he was down to 13.7 now he seem a little less active than the others , then today he was 13.5 and definetly weak and not nursing.......I took him immediately to my vet , but he didn't find anything wrong so he said to tube feeding will be the best
and just wait and hope for the best. his gums are like blueish pale not the same as the others and I was concern about dehydration and ask about injecting fluids under the skin but my vet said he wouldn't recommend it and that the formula should be enough.
Now how much formula per feeding should I do? my vet had sibilac but I already had an emergency pack with "Just born" ready to feed formula but the feeding instructions are way off as the one the vet had ..now I'm confused. ANY help will be greatly appreciated and please say a praying for my little one.....I'm so sad.
