No, that's not normal. Vet. ASAP.
Shih Tzu puppy
We just got a nearly 7 weeks old shih tzuh female puppy . The puppy is barely moving, her legs wobble when she walks and she seems disinterested and sleepy . We are new dog parents and concerned if it's because it's a new place for her or because she is not well ? Please help me out

Glad she seems better. She sure is cute. Was she vaccinated just before you got her? That could account for her behavior, and you need to know to tell your vet anyway.
Unless she really needs a bath, I wouldn't try that until she's had a stress-free week or even two, but that's just me. I don't know if there are any theories about pros and cons of puppies and bathing. Some of them get pretty stinky while still with their litter and get bathed for people to see them.
I had lunch with a friend who I've known through dogs for many years yesterday. One of the memories I brought up was using the No Chew stuff on my own hands and arms with my first Rottie puppy. Don't know if doing that would help, but it might be worth a try.
