No weight gain at 18 weeks?

I will be 18 weeks tomorrow and I have not gained a single pound. I keep fluctuating between my prepregnancy weight and 2 pounds less. Is this safe?

I'm 20w3d and I've only gained 2lbs. My Dr is not worried about it. He said I may have lost weight in the beging because of my nausea. Even though I was eating, I wasn't eating as much because I just couldn't stomach it.

I wondered about not eating as much. I have not been able to eat as much as I usually do because I seem to get full about halfway through a meal. Thank you.

My friend had hyperemesis during her 1st trimester and only ended up gaining (due to weight loss in the first trimester) 14 lbs. in total!  And had a 9 lb. 4oz. baby 2 weeks ago!
