Lately i feel my heart racing randomly even when im just resting, kind of fluttery feeling. Im in my second trimester now. Wondering when this usually starts and if its a common thing, will mention it to my doctor at next visit.
Mild palpitations can be normal in pregnancy, but I will say this, mine were linked to low haemoglobin and thyroid, so dont ignore them. Please mention it to your gynac so they can check your iron and other levels.
My doctor said palpitations can begin in the first trimester and often feel stronger in the second and third as blood volume keeps rising. She told me occasional fluttering is common, but if it comes with chest pain, breathlessness or fainting, get checked right away.
Im in my second trimester and feel my heart flutter sometimes, did others feel this too? It worried me but my doctor said its expected. Still good to confirm if it happens a lot.
I felt my heart racing as early as the first trimester and it scared me. Doc said its because blood volume goes up and heart works harder. It eased once I knew it was normal.
It can start early dear, the body is doing extra work for two. Sit, breathe slow, drink water. But if it feels really fast, with dizziness or breathlessness, dont wait, call your doctor.
