Any LO not gain much from 1-2 months?

My son was 7lbs 10oz at birth.  He never lost weight when he came home and 3 days later he was 7lbs 15 oz.  At one month he was 9lbs 8 oz.  Well today I stepped on the scale and weighed myself and then myself holding him and is says 10lbs even.  I know it is not an exact science but now I am concerned. He eats about 4-5 oz every 3 hours.  And he STTN. He does spit up but nothing that I would consider excessive.  We have his 2 month appt on the 8th but I think I will call them on Monday.

    This just happened with DS....I was worried about it, but when the doctor takes all measurements into consideration it's if his current weight is proportionate to his current height, it's not a problem.  If it really bothers you call the doctor, but as far as my appointment went everything was going swimmingly.

    That's almost our exact weights from 1m - 2m.  I didn't wouldn't about it.  My doc wasn't worried about.  Our LO only eats 4 oz every 3hrs and is healthy and fine.

    Thanks ladies! I think what made me the most nervous was looking in DS #1's baby book and he was 9lbs 11 oz at one month and 13 lbs 4 oz at 2 months.  So there was a big jump there. So only gaining 2 oz just concerned me. I know all kids are different.
