My son is 5 month and 3 week s old his head circumfrence is 41.6 cm only since his 4 month check his head circumfrence grew only 1.1 cm is it normal?

Possibly: Head circumference increases most in the first 3 months of life and slows from month 4 on wards. We usually plot this on a graph which alerts the doctor of any deviation. Let your pediatrician check the graph at baby's next check up.
