I am sure I read that it is normal for the weight gain to slow down from 4 months on, but not to stop gaining or to lose weight.

Think 0-4 months - 4-8oz gain per week, 4 months+ 3-5 oz per week

My doctor didn't seem worried either, and just said "He's just not a huge baby."

It was, for me, more the fact that he had lost 2 oz over 2 weeks. But the percentile drop added to my worry!
