Feeling very poorly :(

[quietserena]

Heart palpitations, shortness of breath, nausea, low blood pressure, etc.

Sucks.

[Prism]

Oooo, are you okay?
Is this normal for you???
I hope you are feeling better soon.
Make sure you sit and rest, and drink
your fluids!
you're in my thoughts.

I went to the ER the other night for a EKG and was diagnosed with heart palpitations also. Is this a pg thing? Never had it with my first pregnancy. Sorry to hear you're feeling icky, momma. hugs!

Inshallah you'll be better soon.
I had heart palps with my last pregnancy, but I have mitral valve prolapse.

I also have heart palps. One of the first signs that I was preggers was when I was sitting in a lecture and thought I was having a mini heart attack. Really. It was horrible. I hope you feel better soon! I am still hoping this is a first trimester thing

[mamasthree]

You're not alone!

[quietserena]

I'm not feeling much better. I've been playing phone tag with my MW all day - she's been attending births so it's hard for her to call me back...

I did some googling and apparently palps are common in pregnancy. I didn't have anything like this last time around! I so hope this gets better, this is worse than nausea I think. And I hate nausea. Hate it.

Worst part is that this seems to happen only after I eat. I thought it was reactions to certain foods (which has happened before) but now it's after I eat *anything*. Like I need more reasons not to eat, I already have the nausea reminding me to eat.

I wish I had some suggestion for you!
Hugs.

[ommom]

i'm glad you're feeling better and know it's 'normal'.

sorry you have to experience 'em at all!

a.

[quietserena]

Talked to my mw who referred me to the doc who doesnt think this is typical pregnancy stuff. So, we're doing blood tests and will see how it'll go.

Bleh.

[Bloomingstar]

I hope things are ok.

[mamajody]

Are you feeling any better today?

[mustangtbn]

I'm sorry to see you're doing poorly. I had that once early in this pregnancy, along with just a general exhausted feeling, and have a had a few days where I felt I was headed in that direction. I've found that really listening to my body and slowing down when this happened helped a lot. It took laying on the couch/in bed all day (as much as possible), though, and it wasn't until the next day that I felt better.

Hope this lets up for you quickly!

[OwensMa]

Hope it goes away soon, and you feel better!

[xakana]

I have heart problems with pregnancy, too. You have my sympathies! They feel awful Mix in all the rest and yeah... If it helps, mine went away around 6 months last time (and mine were a pre-existing condition, and it disappeared until this pregnancy has brought them back). Sometimes coughing can help the feeling--a short, hard cough.

[quietserena]

Ok did better today..

It seems to be connected with eating so the doc and I decided that eating just a few bites here and there would not be an unreasonable way to deal.

I had the palps happen again but not nearly so drastic as after a big meal. So maybe this is the way to go?

Still, it stresses me out to think about eatinng too much. We'll see how it goes. I put my hope were it's appropriate.

Happy to hear that you've gotten some relief. Inshallah the palps will be totally gone soon.
