the palpitations are back..

I keep getting so scared. My palps have been pretty calm for quite awhile until a few days ago. Then they suddenly came on when I stood up to go change Araceli's diaper and continued for a minute or two. Feeling like a skipped beat. Now I have a couple of fits everyday. And they're all the skipped beat feeling. Sometimes I have a vague sense of pain when they occur. Sometimes when they happen it feels like my breath goes out of me? Not sure how to explain that feeling. They're just about always gone as soon as they come and the only leftover from them is the scared,shaky, sometimes breathing a little faster. I know I'm coming up to the time where palps are common in pregnancy ( i'll be 28wks on Monday!! YAAAH!). But I'm still terrified, and they are just taking over my mind. I'm always worried about them. I'll let my doc know, I'm just afraid they're gonna test and find something :(

i get the exact same thing. it does feel like your breath is sucked out of you--for me, if it does it a few times in a row, i really feel like i'm going to pass out. i had a ton of tests done & my doc said it was harmless. easy for him to say b/c he doesn't have anxiety! i have read over & over that calcium/magnesium & coenzyme Q10 along with vit C are good for supporting heart function and nerves. in the meantime, i guess we just have to trust that we're ok.
