25 weeks and losing weight

I'm currently 25 weeks and just noticed that I've lost between 10 and 12lbs. I haven't been sick at all so I know it's not that. It's very noticeable around my face, arms and bum. Is this normal? I know baby has long legs but the rest was in the middle percentiles. In fact I think I'm "smaller" than before I fell pregnant! I won't see the midwife for another three weeks . My cousin who's a pediatrician finds it a bit odd and thinks I might not be eating enough. I'm considering to give the midwife a ring but unsure if they'll take me seriously

What was your bmi at the start? Unless it was very high, it's not recommended to lose weight during pregnancy. You may indeed not be eating enough or exercising too much.

At the very start it was 23/24 then at 12 weeks it was 25. So I'm back at 24 with a massive bump and boobs that increased 6 cups in size
