has anyone on here been pregnant and given birth with SVT? thanks in advance for any and all info you may have :)
hI hun I'm a mum of 7 and my svt was all good during pregnancy and birth and my last 2 were Caesars with the last 3 pregnancys I had allot of pvcs
Yes and Yes. No problems birthing naturally
wow!!! thanks so much for this helpful info! i am 40 with no children but ive had a good amount of breakthrough beating these last several months so clearly hormonal changes etc even on my medication for the svt so being my age combined with the svt i wanted to do lots of research
thats awesome to hear!!! thank you!!!!
YES I WAS BORN WITH IT. I AM 50 NOW WAS MISDIAGNOSED FOR OVER 34 YEARSS UNTIL 2017 AND I HAVE 3 GROWN CHILDREN 24,27, AND 31 THEY ARE ALL FINE. THE DOCTORS WERE SAYING I WAS HAVING PANIC ATTACKS, AND ANXIETY ATTACKS. AND OF COURSE FEELING LIKE I HAD NO CONTROL STEERED ME OFF INTO DEPRESSION BECAUSE I FELT ALONE IN THIS PROBLEM BECAUSE NO ONE UNDERSTOOD. EVEN MY EX HUSBAND TRIED TO USE IT AGAINST ME SAYING I WAS A MENTAL CASE BECAUSE AT TIMES I WOULD FEEL LIKE I WAS HAVING A HEART ATTACK AND THE DOCTORS MADE IT WORSE MAKING IT SOUND LIKE IT WAS THOSE DISORDERS AND FEEDING ME FULL OF MEDS. IT WASNT TILL AN ELECTRO CARDIOLOGIST SEEN ME AFTER THEY HAD TO STOP MY HEART 2 TIMES THAT THEY FOUND OUT I WAS BORN WITH EXTRA NODES THAT WAS SENDING MY HEART TO OVER 257 BEATS PER MINUTE AND IT WAS GETTING STUCK. I WAS ROBBED OF MOST OF MY LIFE I DID NOT KNOW WHAT NORMAL WAS. THANK GOD YOU KNOW WHAT YOU HAVE AND THEY FOUND IT EARLY
oh my goodness luv i am so very sorry you had such issues with diagnosis etc but so thankful you are ok now! wow :( so no issues with svt beating during pregnancies? no increased heartrates in the babies when in utero? no labor complications?
No actually i even did water aerobics the entire pregnancy and walked 5 miles a day i did it to have a healthier labor. because with my first i had pre-eclampsia, so then i knew to stay off all the salt and bad stuff, the second i had gestational asthma but it went away right after birth, and my 3rd I had given birth 5 weeks early because i had gestational diabetes and he was already 7 lbs 6 oz at 5 weeks early. but through all this my svt was not an issue it was amazing. just take really good care of your self and prepare your body for birth water aerobics did wonders for me.
thanks so very much for sharing!! i seriously appreciate all of your helpful info! so glad you didnt have svt issues. i have been having a good amount of breakthrough beating issues even on my cartia xt 240 mg calcium channel blocker so just nervous i may have some rhythm issues
