child first passport

Jan 2013 I got my ILR done.
I got my child registered as british citizen. He was born in UK (But before my ILR).

Its been 4 weeks that I applied for british passport - but haven't heard anything from them. On IPS website they state that it takes 3 weeks for first time passport.

But now that 3 weeks have passed - should I be worried? Or is it usual to take longer than 3 weeks?

Thanks in advance.

did countersignee filled everything on the form?
I had delay with my son passport, only because countersignee did`t put his passport number on the form and they send him a letter requesting this info. get in touch with countersignee if he/she heard from them.
