So, I posted on facebook that I was having heart flutters/heart palpitations, and sort of jokingly said, "So, if the EMTs come make sure you tell them about the palpitations so they can fix me" - and I got 2 female friends ask me if I was pregnant.

1 has had a baby and said that was her first sign of pg -

the other's sister is prgnant and has been having palpitations/fluttering heart and her doc says it's normal.

I've never heard of palpitations being a sign of pg - anyone know anything about this??

  • I have had them a lot this pregnancy. The dr said its because of all the extra blood running thru my system and the heart having to work so hard to get it where it needs to go. Scary, but normal.

    That is what my doctor told me too.  I have noticed them a lot with this pregnancy and had them too with my 1st pregnancy, but not until I was in my 2nd trimester.
