Hi Chelsea,
I would not be giving your baby anymore worm meds. They are toxic if given in too high doses or too often. See your vet and have the kitten assessed. I just lost one of my litter at 6 weeks who failed to grow sufficiently. I still have no idea why, but I tried and tried to have the problem fixed. the vet I saw said all was fine after initially treating him for a chest infection. Told me to wean him, and he choked on food. Did not have the strength to cough it up, and I was unable to get it out. It was devastating, so please see your vet, and if you are not happy with the diagnosis/treatment, then see another. I would hate to see you lose your gorgeous baby also.
