Since the last few weeks my heart feels like its beating faster even when im just sitting or climbing one floor of stairs. Im in my second trimester now and it makes me a little anxious honestly. Is this a normal pregnancy thing or should i mention it to my gynac?

Yes, my gynac said the heart rate naturally goes up because blood volume increases to support the baby. A slightly faster pulse is normal. But she said if you feel racing with breathlessness or dizziness, get it checked.
Mine felt faster and since I had thyroid issues, my doctor kept a closer watch with regular tests. So a mild rise is normal, but tell your gynac if it feels too much. Regular follow ups caught everything for me.
