Skipping heartbeat

[Jennyfer008]

Hi there! I am on my 33rd weeks pregnant and just got off my monthly appointment with my ob. She said that my baby skipped heartbeats which is a first for the last 7mos. I am worried coz it's out first child and the doc scheduled me for a ultrasound session tomorrow. Can someone help me who had this type of problems before? Is it normal? And what would be the cause of it? Thanks!

Oh I see, well this article was just referring to pacs in unborn babies, infants and toddlers.
Hopefully all is well.  Let us know.

By the way the results from the u/s session says "irregular cardiac rhythm" which makes me worry more..

Thanks! Appreciate it.. Just came from u/s and the doc said everything's normal so far but the heartbeat slowed down from what was before.. I'm on my to my ob right now and have her read and interpret the results.. Hopefully all is well..

Well, I have read that there is a high percentage of unborn babies along with newborns and toddlers that have pacs and it was no big deal.   If I can find the article I will cut and paste it for you.  I just read it recently.
