WELL THEN

went to the doctor just now for the baby, and i was explaining about my short of breath and things of that nature that i posted earlier. I have a heart condition i guess! My heart is irregular and it skips beats and all that jaz. They usually put you on medication for it but they dont want to at this point in my pregnancy. We will see about after birth.  

Oh man  
That's scary!

Yikes! :/ is it a heart murmur or something??

Did you use to drink a lot of energy drinks? My sister drank an isane amount of energy drinks (she liked monsters) and now she has an irregular heartbeat and can't have an caffeine at all..not even chocolate .

Skipping a beat is called a-fib.

"Atrial fibrillation or flutter is a common type of abnormal heartbeat in which the heart rhythm is fast and irregular."

Yikes thats really scary . .

You'll be ok  I have heart problems too. If it was serious they ould have admitted you to the PCU.I spent two days there.If you plan to BF you can't take heart meds either. My cardiologist/ Electrophysiologist told me no meds for the pregnancy and to bf for the fist six months.

No taccacardya is usually a really fast heart rate there's a really fast and safe surgery for that usually

No, that would be abnormally fast heart beat.

Are you not on meds or under a cardiologists care?

he used a really long word, i cant remember. but, no meds right now and i have to lay around basically and take it easy. and no, i dont do caffeine. I guess i've had this before pregnancy but the pregnancy is making it worse though
