Weight was adequate at birth and significant gain is also present. But the head circumference was on the lower side, at birth as well as presently. Head circumference has increased, but it falls in lower normal range.  Will require detailed antenatal history and direct physical examination to look for any further advice.
Next Steps
Consider visiting your pediatrician for detailed evaluation
