3rd trimester

Does anyone experience frequent palpitation all the time during 3rd trimester? Like heartbeat thumping at more than 100bpm?

Yes, mine was very high up to 150 / 160 bpm sometimes most times its 100 over. Its irregular. Back in oct i was hospitalised first in kkh then referred to heart specialist at SGH the same day cos they check baby was doing fine but my heart rate wasnt. Was at sgh for 1 week now im on medication until i give birth . If after i give birth my heart rate still dont go back to normal i will have to go for a heart procedure. So please go advice doctor on this. I was told that if no medication i took helped to lowered my heart rate or at least kept it low i would need to go for the procedure during pregnancy ( which i didnt want to cos it involve xray and stress on me which could cos my baby) so lucky we found a medication that helped so i could wait at least after i give birth to do the heart procedure. And doctors also say that i might get heart failure by the end of my pregnancy. My gynae advise me to take epidural during my delivery so that the pain will not stress on my heart and it will not go higher. It would be more relax and smooth delivery for me.
