Thanks for the comments everyone.
Carol - keep trying, maybe repositiion your thumb or lift the neck to a more upright position. The pinky shouldn't have to stretch too much to get to the 5th fret of the G string. Oh, wait a sec - what finger are you using on the C on the A string? I'm using my second with my first on the E on the D string. If you're using your 3rd as you would with a standard C then, yes, it'd be quite a challenge to get up to the 5th fret.
