 That's definitely going to be something to talk to your OB about. More then likely you will continue to lose weight but you shouldn't be TRYING to. Continue to eat healthy but don't diet, is what my doctor told me. There's also the likelihood they'll want you to up your daily calories. Hell, mine wanted me to up mine by more then a thousand...which just isn't happening.

Congrats on your pregnancy!

At your current weight, you won't be in danger to continue losing weight while pregnant. Just be sure you're having your labs checked and having the baby's size monitored (extra ultrasounds) as you go along. Your weight loss may obviously slow or stall more often, especially later, like in the second half of the pregnancy, but losing weight when you begin a pregnancy obese is not usually a problem. The baby will take what it needs from you, so just keep eating healthy (keep your protein up!) and, I'll say it again, make sure you're having your labs checked.
