Slow weight gain for 10 week baby

Hello mummies, my baby boy is 2 months 10 days and only weighs 5.5kg. According to the health booklet chart his weight percentile is about 50. Should I be worried? He’s eating and pooping just fine. Drinks 120ml FM each feed about 7 times a day. Would love to get some advice please!

My gal has been one the 10-25 percentile since birth (except once she dropped to a lower percentile). Her last weight measured was 7 but cant rmb was it 10th mth or smth..

50th percentile is normal. As long as baby drinks well, good amount of diaper output, no signs of dehydration (dark yellow pee) then it shouldn’t be an issue. 😊

Weight is normal. No need to worry about that.
