Question For those of you with tiny yorkies

Not sure where to post this. But this is to you all who have tiny babies or had them in the past. Starsky was a big boy when we got him at 9 weeks he was 2.5 lbs and very active. Never had a health problem. Well we have little Shylah now and she is only 1.9 lbs at 12 weeks and not as active. I am constantly worring about her. When we got her she had some kind of dry skin rash on her lower back, like it was bugs or something that bit her and now it is flaking away. (vet says it was some kind of allergic reaction). Then she gets this upset tummy and whimpers in pain, only to find out she ate a little piece of plastic, plus I think the bully sticks upset her tummy. Now she sneezes a lot. Not sure if it was because I gave her bath yesterday to get some of the flakes off her skin. She is either on or off. She plays for about 15 to 30 minutes and then she sleeps. ALOT! She is very snuggling and makes little squeeky noises. Is this all very normal??

The breeder said she may only grow to be 4lbs at the most. I just need someone to tell me not to worry or I need a mentor who I can talk to regulary about this little one. Thanks for listening.
