Pounding pulse?

The last few evenings I've noticed my pulse, which I don't normally feel. Sitting on the couch reading I can feel it up in my neck and in my upper back (not feel it with my fingers, feel it in my body, if that makes any sense). It's not a very good feeling. I thought it was from caffeine at first, but I have the weird pulse this morning and I haven't had any coffee. 

I have an OB appt next Friday so I can talk to her then, but I was just curious if anyone else had noticed this. It seems to make sense since our resting heart rate is supposed to be at its high in the 2nd trimester. Just a little freaky to have it happen suddenly in the last few days!

  • I have this too but it's in my head.  It feels like my heart is in my head!

  • I have it occasionally, too. I can usually calm it by drinking more clear fluids.

    Good idea! Makes sense that at the end of the day I'm dehydrated.

  • Drink more water. You're probably a bit dehydrated.
