I have a 3wk old baby who only weighs 4g so im right there with you on the tiny herp department. I wasnt told to "not handle" him.. i just hold him when its nessesary. I take the CGD and dab my finger in it and bring it to his face, he licks it right off! You might want to give that a try and see what happens. im very new to CG myself (friday he will be with me one week)

Good luck!
