Normally babies double their birth weight by the age of 5 months. So if your baby's birth weight was 4 kg then it is absolutely fine.
You should get his Blood sugar and TSH done and it should be repeated after 6 months.
But you must continue breast feeding the baby as long as you can.

Weight is within normal range but need to know height , head circumference etc to evaluate the over all development.
Keep the baby hydrated.
Continue best feeding him.
