Hi, thanks for asking.
I can understand your concerns.
In my opinion there is nothing to worry. He may look slim because of his built but his weight is in the normal range for his age.
You give him nutritious food and let his appetite guide his intake. Even his development is normal. So nothing to worry.
I hope I have helped you.
Thank you
