It's normal. We have a week or so of potty regression every two to three months (she potty trained early) and it always goes away. Sometimes I think it's because she gets busy and just doesn't want to bother, and sometimes I can't find any reason at all. But it does go away, so don't worry.

same boat!
my dd 2.5 was all but learned back in early october..save for poop, which she refused to put in the potty.
then one day, she started having accidents left and right and it increased to the point where she was having more accidents than success on the potty.
we collectively decided she would be more comfortable back in her pull-ups until she decided to tackle it again and with the exception of a few times here and there...she hasn't used the potty since.
I think it is definitely normal...probably partly a power issue (at least with my dd) and I figure, she KNOWS how to do it at this point...and it's her choice to make the start again. this very preggo mama couldn't take cleaning up messes all day any longer and I figured it might be easier for her after all the adjustment to new baby stuff is behind us!
once in awhile she'll express interest in wearing her underwear and I'll remind her that when we wear underwear, we make an effort to get to the potty and she'll (almost) always decide to wear pull-up or diaper instead.
maybe she's experiencing late pregnancy fatigue too
