I got Chloe at 7 wks and 1 lb. She and I both did fine and you will too. You do have to stay right on it tho. I can tell you what I did and hope that helps.
First warm her kibble in HOT water and stir until it is soft and mushy. By the time it is soft it will have cooled down for her. Chloe never needed Nutrical all tho I had it here for her. When I was preparing her food she would be so anxious she would bark at me and it nearly knocked her off her feet. I fed her 4 times a day all she would eat for about 30 min. If I felt she hadn't eaten enough, I left dry kibble down. She got me up every two hrs to pee or poo during the night for the first month. I thought I would die, I'm not a kid any more. Keep her warm. It will be easier for you now, I had Chloe during the winter. I never had any problem with her pooping. She always went right after eating and went about 3 times a day altogether. I don't work so it was easy for me to watch her. I took her to my Vet the day after I got her and she checked out OK so no health problems. Today she is 6 lbs and 9 mos. She has never had a sick day. As long as she has no health problems, just feed, water, potty, and warmth and all the love you have to give. She'll do fine. You on the other hand will need a big rest in about one month. After a month with Chloe I think I slept the whole weekend when my DH was here to take over. Enjoy her and if you have any questions, please PM me, I would love to talk to you.
