Racing heart
Last night I was on the computer and I felt very lightheaded. I have been feeling that lately (usually after I get up from sitting down) but this just came on suddenly and left suddenly too.
Then my heart started racing a bit and I couldn't get to sleep last night.
Has this happened to anyone? I am 19 weeks. Thanks

Re: Racing heart
yes it has happened to me twice. My heart races for like 20 seconds and that's it.
Keep in mind that your body is changing. Heart racing and lightheadedness is normal.
(ETA: i'm 18 weeks)

This has happened to me a few times. Usually after I've gotten up and down a bunch of times. It goes away in about 30 sec.

Re: Racing heart
It happened to me too. I would let your Dr. know. If it happens again call your OB.

Re: Racing heart
That's happened to me a few times. I read that it's normal - your heart's trying to keep up with all the extra blood flow.
