I've always had this from as far back as i can remember. Basically if i get an upset tummy and it cramps i also get some weird sensation in my chest like flutterings or maybe slow heart rate or something, hard to explain. I've never really thought about it before, but now approaching labour I've been worrying about it as obviously i will be having alot of pain in the same area only worse, so now im worried its an undiagnosed heart condition! I know this is probably irrational as I've never had any other heart problems. Just palpitations with anxitey really. I guess i just wondering if anyone else ever experiences this symptom!!!

Hi there

It sounds like you have IBS which is kept alive by anxiety.Palpitations are anxiety symptoms but with no medical significance. Your heart is fine, it's a very strong muscle.
