E topic heart rate and pregnancy

[Mum2freddie14]

Hello everyone.. just a thought... I had my LB in 2014 with a natural labour and no pain relief. We found out not long ago that we are expecting our second (how exciting) ...

Two years ago I was diagnosed with an ectopic heart rate (extra beats) and also had collapse episodes due to this. I was wondering if anyone has had this prior to labour and if they were able to have a natural labour. I know I need to speak to my cardiologist about this .. just wondering if anyone's had the same

Thsnkyouuu

Yes I did, with my 4th baby. Quite near to the if I remember correctly about 36 weeks. I had a holter for 24 hours after a severe episode and all was ok as far as cardiology were concerned.
He did call a few weeks later to check on my symptoms and offered a drug that I could take if I needed it during an episode but it wasn't needed.
Unfortunately it did make me very anxious and of course that is a vicious circle!
Good luck and I'm sure all will be fine x
