Baby at lower percentile

Mummies who gave birth to their baby full term and their baby now still at the lower percentile, did your baby turned out fine when they grow up? My 4 months old is only 6.3kg and 60cm and its small for his age and im very worried. He used to be 6.6kg but got sick and lost weight. He looks small physically. Sometimes i cant help but to compare him with other babies esp those in his ifc and same age. Altho i know we should not compare our baby. Can i just know how much your baby weight and their height at 4 months?

Mine is also at lower percentile and at 4months doctor mentioned if by 6months weight not increased might have to go to nutrition specialist. Doc also ask if i intend to start BLW for my child at 5month. My LO is starting on food now that shes 5months. She was 60cm and only 5.2kg at 4months. Initially tot she has increased weight cuz she was heavier when being carried but was shocked of her weight during weigh in. She was drinking well and all but not sure why the weight not increasing. Hopefully aftr having solids her weight does increase. Did doctor allow your child to start on foods?
