I want to chalk them up to stress but I probably will ask a doctor to let me have tests anyway.
I'm having them regularly at the moment but I usually feel a surge of adrenalin with them and none of the serious symptoms listed in that article.
I'm also sometimes only getting 3 - 4 hours sleep a night having 3 kids under 5yo and this week it's been my just turned 3yo who has given us a scare when we had to call an ambulance when he developed breathing difficulties and we back and forth to the emergency room for the next 3 days before they finally admitted him. We'd had to give him about 20 puffs of ventolin in an hour before they took us seriously and even then it was only because a pediatric doctor happened to see him and wanted to keep him in for observation. He deteriorated a bit more and developed a fever and vomited a couple of times.
Then they started talking about pneumonia... It wasn't that luckily but he does have inflammation on one lung still and was discharged after 2 nights, on his 3rd birthday, and he's still not right and on quite a regime of ventolin.. so that might also explain my stress and extra heart palpitations
Lucky my 8 week old is a fairly "easy" baby. In fact, he's such a sweetheart and grateful little soul that hanging out with him relaxes me at the moment.
But adjusting to life with 3 of them and having my husband go back to work for the first time since the birth has also been a bit overwhelming. It may just be stress!
