Does this mean anything? Is it an indication of a health problem?

thanks for that. it probably is worth asking the health visitor at his next weigh in, but i know what you mean, there are a lot of jobsworths in the NHS (i used to be one of them), and they might insist on investigating further just to find out he's totally fine. i suppose i have to be prepared for that if i chose to mention it to the GP or health visitor.
