Too less weight gain in last 15 days

My baby's birth weight was 3.055 kg. In 2.5 months her weight is now at 4.350kg. In last 15 days she just gained 180 grams and she is on exclusive breast feeding. In last few days she had multiple curdled spit ups. Until now the weight gain was appropriate but since last 15 days it is not up to mark. My feed is proper in terms of quantity. Is it fine or should I make any changes to her feeding?
