Weight not increasing at all since 1 year is not considered normal, even if child is active. After 1 year weight gain slows but should still gradually increase. Better to check growth chart, diet history and rule out issues like inadequate calories, anemia or malabsorption. I would suggest one pediatric evaluation.
