Hi, I am 23 weeks pregnant and I had a midwife appointment on Tuesday. She checked the baby's heart rate and said it sounded irregular so sent me for a scan. I've since had another with a consultant, and have an appointment with a heart specialist in the morning. Apparently there doesn't appear to be anything wrong with the structure of the baby's heart but it has extra beats. The consultant told me it often goes away on its own before the baby is born - but of course I'm worried sick. Has anyone heard of this before?
