I have a few babies a week and a half old with drooping leaves tips are curling and a few leaves are beginning to become distorted (wilted looking) I gave them a good watering today. Is underwatering a problem that is easily remedied or have i fucked up??

Could be over watering or underwatering. for overwatering the leaves look more curled down ("the claw") where underwatering the leaves look more like they've all just gone limp. A picture would help. =)

get a moisture meter $10 at wally world, this will help out a lot.

when the meter reads almost dry lift your pots and feel the weight. this will help you also getting the feel of when to water.
 
looks like to me over watering are spray ing them with water or just watering the soil cause plants not big enough to have roots for the up take of water yet so they must be feed thru the fooliage...pg
 
or the soil got to hot
Keep an eye on your ambient temp. feel the soil in the middle of the day cycle. If it feels to warm, put them in a larger pot with a bunch of soil, it'll help keep the root zone temp lower. This is where you must be carful not to over water. In a typical veg room, you may have to water once a week for the newborns
Seed starts don't need any nuits until they are past the sprouting stage
Wait until the little round leaves at the bottom dry up or drop off before giving them anything but ph'ed water and benaficials
