Oh and my MIL has a scale for me that I am about to go get, so I can weigh them and keep up with that.
Did you try placing him on a teat? Sometimes you do have to pry their mouths open a little, but make sure you do it very gently. You may have to literally hold his head on there until he gets a good suck going. His belly should stay full. Is his belly tight or squishy?
