It is normal, as a matter of fact your iPhone is doing better than normal. Your iPhone is expected to drop 1% battery health per month, so after 5 1/2 months you should be at the 94-95% range. You are doing better than average at 96%. What you observed was a non-linear decline which is very common and while it can seem like your battery is declining quickly, this isn’t actually the case.
