Anyone else experiencing irregular heartbeat?

im 61/2 weeks along and since about 2 weeks ive been feeling my heart beat very hard after little or no exertion. does this sound familiar to anyone? i had my bp checked tuesday, it was slightly high, but they said nothing to worry about, and ive been avoiding salt, no caffeine, etc... . any feedback is greatly appreciated!

yes had it on and off until 20 weeks then I got my blood tested and my iron was extremely low, even though I was taking my iron pills it still wasn't enough in my prenatals to bring it up so I got prescribed an iron pill and it stopped

Dont stress, try drinking lots of water and take it easy if it continues just ask your OB for any concerns. But youre not far along at all baby should be okay and so will you. Good luck :))

Could be low on iron as well I've heard it can cause heart palpitations. Make sure you're taking your prenatals and that the prenatals have iron in them.

It kind of sounds like heart palpitations, which are normal during pregnancy.
