Haan na, mere saath bhi aisa hota tha! Even walking a few steps made my heart beat so fast. It's usually normal because body is double working, but ek baar doctor se check up karva lo to be totally relaxed.
Don't panic, dear. Your body is producing almost 50% more blood now, so your heart naturally beats faster to pump it all. Just sit down, drink some water, and take deep breaths. If it happens too often, mention it to your doctor at your next visit.
Between managing office work and pregnancy, my heart rate would often shoot up when I was stressed or rushed. I had to learn to slow down and take proper breaks. Just keep an eye on it and don't skip your doctor's appointments.
Actually, a slight increase in heart rate (about 10-15 beats more per minute) is medically normal due to increased cardiac output. But if you feel palpitations, chest pain, or extreme dizziness, you must consult your gynac immediately to check your hemoglobin and thyroid levels.
Whenever my heart raced, my MIL would make me sit under the fan and give me fresh coconut water. Usually, it's just dehydration or fatigue. Try to take rest, but definitely tell your doc about it during your routine checkup.
Oh, I used to feel my heart racing so fast and would immediately panic and search online. Honestly, our blood volume increases a lot during pregnancy so the heart has to work harder, but please check with your gynac if you feel dizzy or breathless.
Please get your thyroid and iron levels checked because high heart rate can sometimes be linked to thyroid fluctuations. I had to take daily thyroid meds for this. Regular doctor follow-ups are super important for this symptom.
