A. First of all let me tell you ma'am it's not like "only 11 kg". your son is doing just fine. we sometimes nurture a wrong concept that gaining weight is just the only sign that my baby is growing. it is not. you must consider the increament in his height as well. you must see whether he is getting taller. another point is that baby gains weight by following a trend which is set by his or her birth weight. If birth weight is lower he or she must follow the trend. it should not switch it's trend towards that of the higher birth weight or lower birth weight. the graphs, trends and all are available in any vaccination and health record book. you must follow them. it helps a lot. and here one more thing to remember , overweight is also considered as the malnutrition. your baby is healthy. and that is the only thing matters here. try to give him different seasonal fruits. lemons, pomegranate, bananas are all time favourites for moms.
