I do agree that you need to see your dr, but chances are it is just your body getting used to the extra blood volume as it does increase by about 100%!!! The shortness of breath could be the expanding uterus decreasing your lung capacity. Again, please see your doctor! Good luck and congratulations.

I am having this and it lasts for minutes and often. I have been to my doctor, even sent for an EKG. They say it's normal. You just feel the overtime your heart is putting in trying to supply you and your baby. Also they told me to up my iron and protein, as it may help a bit with this. But honestly nothing helps. I just lay down on my left side and try to relax and take my mind off of it. I have noticed when you sit there worried about it and why it's happening it gets worse and lasts longer. It would be a good idea to get your blood pressure checked, even do it at your local drug store to see if it's high. But my doctor told me to just check my pulse when it happens and see if it's still a normal rate. My pulse is usually normal, but it still feels horrible. I think it's just pumping harder. I know what you are going through, and this is the thing that is bothering me most in my pregnancy. Let me know if you find any explanations other than the ones I have told you, or any solutions. I am having that right this minute, and nothing makes me comfortable because I worry about little weird feelings, especially when it comes to my heart pumping like crazy. Best wishes to you and congratulations on your pregnancy!

No it is not normal sweetie, Yes you should go see your OB GYN about it. If you ever have any doubts about your pregnancy, you should see your OB GYN, because it is always better to be safe! Do not stress tho. It would not help you to stress over it. Your doctor will be able to help you so no need to worry, just make your appointment and follow what ever your doctor tell you. Congratulations on your upcoming arrival!!!

Heart palpitations are never normal for someone who has never had them before. Call your OB right now and tell them what is going on. I am certain they will make time to see you today.
Good luck!

I would definitely get a doctor's opinion on this as soon as you can.
It's normal for your pulse to be quicker when you're pregnant, but this just doesn't sound right to me. Get checked out as soon as you can.

I recommend you see your dr about this. Your body is telling you that there is a problem and it might not be able to handle the pregnancy very well.
Please go and see you dr and tell us how it goes.
Take care and god bless
