Skipping heart beat

I went to the cardiologist for some other reason. I thought I was feeling bradycardia, doc did an echo which came back normal. And holter monitor which also came back normal except just for sinus arrhythmia on one reading. It was for 20 days but I wore it for 13 days because I was getting a rash. Ever since I took it off I’ve been having constant skipping heartbeat since for almost one week, and I’m mad at myself saying I should’ve wore it longer so these skipped beats could be caught by my monitor. Now I just want to cry because this is debilitating and no one can give me answers now. I’m 28 weeks pregnant. I’m so tired and I feel so lost at this point, I just don’t know what to do. This is my first pregnancy and I’m 23 years old, everything is just making me too much overwhelmed.  I couldn’t even sleep last night bc of these palpitations 

Re: Skipping heart beat

  • So sorry you’re dealing with this. I’ve had heart palpitations for a few years now. I’ve noticed them more if I’m dehydrated or if I get my heart rate up too high. Not sure if it would be the same for you, but I would avoid caffeine or rigorous exercise and see your cardiologist again!
