Hi there, I to am pregnant and have been getting palpitations the last few days. I became so worried about them which only made them worse. I then realised that I had been having a stressful few days before getting them. I decided I wasn't going to care about them anymore, they're actually common in pregnancy anyway. My stress levels have dropped and I haven't had any more. All you can really do is say to yourself I don't care about these palpitations and if they get worse so be it. Take the fear away and your body will naturally relax over time. And it does take time. Good luck with the next few weeks, wish I was a far along as you I'm only 13.5 weeks!
