Pregnant and Skipping Beats

Pregnant and Skipping Beats

Hi everyone,
I am 17 weeks pregnant and for the last couple of weeks I have been experiencing skipping heart beats.
I had an ASD closure 2 1/2 years ago and the device is working fine.
I was on a Holter monitor last week and did and Echo and I have not heard anything back yet so I am assuming if there was something really wrong someone would have called me to let me know.
Has anyone else experienced these?
I am freaking out here.

Try not to freak out.  I know, much easier said than done : )

For some reason, many women experience ectopic beats during times of hormonal fluctuations (ovulation, pregnancy, peri-M).  I had PVCs with all 3 of my pregnancies, so try not to worry.

Great news on the successful ASD closure (and the pregnancy)!!

Here's to a stellar report from the Holter and echo!  Let us know what you find out.
