Would consult his pediatrician and have some blood work drawn to check for anemia, low thyroid and other possible causes.

Growth is a peculiar process & many kids will go through a pause/slow down like that described before a growth spurt. It can also be an indication of a problem before it emerges. Contact his doc & get him evaluated. The doc will decide how to proceed once he is examined.
