Heart Palpitations?

Question

Does anyone ever feel like their heart is skipping a few beats? Then when I start to focus on it more, I swear it starts to happen more. At 24 weeks tomorrow!

Answer

I have this! It didn't start till I was 14 weeks pregnant. I went and got a heart holter monitor put on for 24 hours. The results said I had premature ventricular contractions which just means sometimes my heart beats too early. Even though it feels like it's skipping beats! My doctor said it's pretty normal and maybe baby is sitting on the aortic artery.

Answer

I get them all the time and I hate it. I went to a cardiologist a few days ago to wear a heart monitor for 24 hours but sadly I didn't get any when I had the monitor on so I'll probably never know exactly what they are

Answer

Would anyone on this thread be willing to chat some more about these heart palpitations? You can find me on FB under Christa E Dean. I am just so nervous about them I'd love a buddy to go through this with! Thanks!

Answer

I had them with my last pregnancy and my Dr said they're actually pretty common in pregnancy, especially if you've battled dehydration (which I did with that pregnancy because I was so sick for so long). He said they usually go away after baby is born and he was right, never felt them again and haven't had any repeats with this pregnancy. Always good to talk to your Dr about them though so they're aware what's up.

Answer

I get this when I'm dehydrated. Even doctor told me that. Hearts pumping too hard.

Answer

I've had this happen a few times so far, I'll be 23 weeks tomorrow.
