Day 5: 150 Pounds- Im such a LOSER.

Wow, it's WORKING!

Last night was a rough night for me though.
For SOME reason I had heart palpitations, or PVC's (Premature Ventricular Contractions) that I haven't had since I was pregnant with Abigail almost 5 years ago.

It's a 'skip' in the beat, and a rush of adrenaline. It's like, you feel a slight build and then a gush in your heart rate.

"Ba-bump, ba-bump, ba-bump.... ba-ba-bump-bump, ba-ba-bump-bump, ba-bump, ba-bump..."
Wigged me out until I could finally go to sleep. This morning has been great, no PVC's.
Oops. Spoke too soon, there was one.

I'm going to try and make a doctor's appointment to get it checked out again. Last time they kind of shrugged it off and the only time it caused any concern was when I was pregnant in the maternity ward. I was being monitored and the palpitations showed up on the heart rate machine. You know, the one that goes "PING!".
My OB just about passed out, I was surprised by her reaction.

me: "Dont worry about it, they're only PVC's, and the other doctors said not to worry about them."
OB: "You mean... you've had this BEFORE?!"
me: "Well... that is probably what that means..."

After that, I switched to midwivery for my prenatal care.
Stupid doctors, heh. *grin*

But today we're going to go to the zoo and get some excersize! Yay! I LOVE the Palm Beach Zoo. It's so theraputic.
