Tachycardia

Ah, I feel you lah! Quite a few mums I know went through this during their pregnancies, memang the heart works extra hard when you're carrying, so it's not uncommon to feel your pulse racing even when you're just sitting or doing simple things like climbing stairs. Some mums noticed their resting heart rate stayed around 75, 85 which was okay, but then it would suddenly spike to 170, 180, which honestly gave them (and their doctors!) a bit of a fright; others found that even light activity made them feel faint and breathless, though their oxygen levels were actually fine. The thing is, hormones and the extra blood volume your body needs do play a big role, so try not to panic too much, but it's definitely something worth mentioning to your doctor or specialist, especially if it's happening often or if you're feeling dizzy or very uncomfortable. They can monitor you properly and make sure everything's settling well, okay? Take care of yourself!
