Weight plateau of 3 month old

I want to get guidance regarding my baby’s weight. She is currently 3 months 2 days old. Her weight on 07th april was 4.9 kg and was around 5.2 kg on 17th April. When checked again on 24th April, it was 5.2 kg. This suggests there has been little to no weight gain over the past 7–8 days. In terms of other parameters: She is active and alert Urine output is good and frequent Feeding is regular (I have been ensuring frequent and effective feeds) Apart from weight, she has shown good length growth. Her birth height was 46 cm, on 07th April it was 56.8 cm and on the 24th April it is around 60-61 cm. Lately, she has also started to appear leaner compared to earlier. Could you please advise if this short plateau in weight gain is acceptable at this stage. She is exclusively breastfed and takes 9-10 feeds in 24 hours. She also gives longer stretch of sleep at night with 1-2 feeds or maybe none sometimes.

2 month baby sleep

Baby is 2 month 10 days old. Baby had good sleep pattern but for past 3 days the sleep has been disturbed and at night sleeps around 11 or 1 am and then sleeps for about 7-8 hrs with feeds in between.

She is active in wake time and only cries when she is unattended and during nights around 8 or 9 pm for the sleep. We have tried dim light and routine sleep place. Her pattern has been changed drastically.
