rapid heartbeating

Im 27 weeks and my heart has been beating fast since last nite off and on i called the doctors office he said go to labor and delivery but now it has stoped has anyone gone thru this before

I used to get a lot of palpitations when I was pregnant, but they only lasted a few minutes. I'd probably go to L&D even though it's stopped.

Check your pulse. anything over 100 requires medical attention. mine was 135 last week. the doctor said that was like cardiac arrest, yet I was walking around fine. :S

My heartrate is often high because I have a thyroid problem, which can also cause the palpitations. At my appt yesterday my HR was 107. It can be caused by anything, so that's why I think OP should go in. Could be something else causing it, not necessarily something wrong with her heart.

I have hypothyroidism as well, controlled, and mine (like i said) can get to 135, but i was told even with my hypo, when i was pregnant to go in any time it was ever 100.
