I would not panic about their size yet.Usually they double their birth weight in the first week, you really cannot tell on some of them and some you can see it from birth that they will be smaller.
One of ours that we had to bottle feed was 2 oz at birth ,I knew he would stay small his feet were tiny etc.He is about 2 1/2 pounds at 8 months now.
We had 3 tiny ones 2 med size and a large one who is 5 pounds at 8 months.So all different sizes.
