ftm. is this okay??

I'm 18 weeks and I've only gained 2 pounds this whole pregnancy. I actually lost 13 pounds in the first trimester from severe nausea and so far no matter how much I eat in my second trimester I'm not gaining anything. Is this normal?

I was put on a strict diet so I lost around that much and have only gained 2 as well.. my doctor told me not to worry about it.baby is still getting everything he needs and the baby weight will come no matter what towards the end

If your doctor has no concern about it then it's fine. I'm 32 weeks and have gained only
5'pounds-severe nausea, like you. But of course if you are extremely concerned about this then say something to your doctor. Congrats on baby! Good luck with nausea, hope it goes away for you!
