Is this normal?

I have a plant that is in it's first week of flowering.The past few days i've noticed leaves falling off,or easily picked off.They are just small little leaves located well within the base of her.98% of her leaves are nice and green,and she appears quite healthy.
Does this normally happen?I will include a few pics of her,And tommorrow i will try and take a pic of what i mean(she's sleeping right now).Could it just be that they aren't getting enough light down below the tops?

the leaves closest to the main stalk on the lower half of this plant will most likely all fall off or can..they do not recieve enough light to produce the starches and sugars to complete photo and develop strong base stem, plus lack of air exchange- so yes this is normal, unless its abnormally doing this (confusing right) if all leaves or most leaves were doing this i would say you had a calcium def...but your plant looks good and this is perfectly normal.

Thanks for the info.The leaves seem to have stopped falling off for now.They were mostly small little leaves from the main stalk.All the leaves that i picked off basically came off as so as i touched them.No resistance at all.
