Babies tend to loose weight for the first few days of life, and then come back to the birth weight .Your baby has crossed the birth weight at 11th day, which is absolutely normal..dont worry..
Next Steps
1) Just concentrate on the feeding at this time..baby should be exclusively breast feed/formula feeds , on demand ...2) Also keep a watch on the urine output ..Take care
