Probably not: At 21 lb a male child is the average weight of a 9 month old & fits on the scale of the bottom 1% of the male population. If there were other issues like being born 3 months early, he would be in the bottom 10%. His status deserves evaluation by professionals.

Supplement: Supplement his diet with children's protein drink twice daily. Offer high calorie foods, and obtain screening for chronic diseases by seeing your pediatrician. Very often the addition of more calories will help to improve the weight.
