I would not be terribly concerned unless this went on for more than a day or 2 with no weight gain. Some of my smallest puppies have only gained .2 ounces a day at first as they are just smaller. Does your scale measure to the .5 ounce or to .2 ounces? If it only measures to the .5 ounce then you can miss a slight weight gain. If he seems to be thriving and feeding okay, no crying or shaking, etc. he should be fine. I would start weighing him 2 times a day just to keep track with him. Maybe take the other pups away and give him a little alone time with mom also. That way you can make sure he is getting his share! Best of luck!
