ectopic heartbeat palpitations in pregnancy no 2

[juliec26]

I am 28 weeks pregnant with no 2 - developed ectopic beat when dd was 1. since being pregnant they are getting worse - 3 years ago had echo, 72 hour ecg, and stress test. Had a stay in hospital 3 weeks ago as they were so bad. 3 ecg's showed ectopic beats all ok,, really suffering today with palpitations, feels like I have had them all day! - I have an ectopic heart beat in a normal sinus rhythm, but cant help worrying about it, which I know is probably making it 10 times worse, so is the fact I have sat on the sofa all day as it makes me feel like I cant concentrate on anything else - Does anyone else suffer with these - My consultant said I could take propanal beta blocker, which I took before I was pregnant, but to scared too, in case it harms the baby - any reassurance would be nice

julie - I'm sorry I can't answer your question, but wanted to suggest you also post in pregnancy, there may be more people with knowledge of your problem on that section. (But hopefully you will get some helpful answers here too, - good luck )

Thanks Kurri - have posted in pregnancy, but no replies as yet :( thanks for replying tho :)
