up to 1st 10 days max of 20 %wt loss is expected but in your case its more than that ...you need to feed your baby every hourly on both sides ..1st month baby will not get up on her own due to hunger ... you wil have to wake up then feed ...and watch for urine out in 24 hr how many times she passes urine.. and most imp visit neonatologist
