3 day old kittens stalling in the 90 g weight

I have 5 orphaned kits who are stalling in theire weight gain. They are not loosing any more but I can't get three of them over the 90 mark. They are on KMR every two hours or so. Still seem energetic, but slightly dehydrated.

Wait, what happened to mom??

How much are you feeding them? At 90 grams they each need 25-30 mLs of formula per 24 hour period. This means 2.5 mL's of milk every 2 hours around the clock.

How old are they? Are you stimulating them to pee and poop? Are you using a heat source?

Are you using powdered KMR instead of pre-mixed? Powdered is best. If dehydrated, mix the powder with clear pedialyte instead of water. Do not use Hartz brand KMR.

Is this the same litter that you posted about yesterday?

@delaydawn was their mother the cat you talked about in this thread?  http://www.thecatsite.com/t/334895/mother-cat-not-eating-or-drinking-9-hours-later#post_4216047  If so I'm so very sorry for your loss. 

But this could have some bearing on the condition of the kittens. This isn't my area, but if you could provide more information the members here who are pretty knowledgeable may be able to help you more.
