Update on heart and Pregnancy

Hi Everyone,

Hope your all doing as well as can be.

So I’m not 21 weeks pregnant baby is doing amazing all scans look great. Me on the other hand not good at all. I haven’t been able to go to work since my attack in May of 240bpm. My heart races just going upstairs and reaching up and sniffing triggers a palpitation. I will have to start maternity leave early as my company stop paying me next month because I had time off before and after my ablation and now I’m off again. My resting heart rate is between 110 and 130. I have seen my cardiologist I can’t have my Flecainide because of the pregnancy, they said I will need a 2nd ablation after our baby is born. So disappointing when I got through Feb, March and April all great. But on the positive side as long as my gorgeous baby girl is ok that’s amazing!

Thanks for all your posts guys you have helped me so much throughout this journey

Half pleased baby is progressing nicely and all is well, half unpleased you're struggling with the symptoms and they can't offer you anything to put a lid on it.

Any cravings besides Normal Sinus Rhythm?
