Success after IF

Update on Baby's Irregular Heartbeat

I saw the perinatologist this morning for another ultrasound.  Looks like my little man has PAC (premature atrial contraction).  This means the heart really doesn't skip a beat. Instead, an extra beat comes sooner than normal. Then there's a pause that causes the next beat to be more forceful.  I go in Monday to see my OB for fetal heart tone check and then back to the Peri on 12/26 to check up on him.  Then I get to have weekly heart tone checks with my OB.  The Peri and my OB seem to think it will correct itself, but are keeping an eye on it to be sure.  Other than that, he is right on track and weighs about 1lb 15 ozs.

  • One of our babies has the same thing.  It's nerve wracking, but they assure me most grow out of it.  We had a full echocardiogram on him earlier in the week and everything else looked good.  I'm comforted to know your doc had a similar reaction.  We'll hope both of our babies outgrow it soon!
