Checking on DS last night before bed, gave him a kiss and put my hand on his chest, noticed his heart was thumping.
Kept my hand on his chest for a few minutes and his heartbeat was very irregular (I'll try and type it out!)
It was going boomboomboom..........boom........boom boom.......boomboomboomboomboom..............................boom.............boom
Not in any kind of pattern but just very irregular.
Came back and checked 5 mins later and it was still the same
Listened again this afternoon and it's still the same!
DS is totally healthy, running around like a mad thing....does everyone have regular heartbeats? He has had his chest listened to before (chest infection) so wouldn't am irregular heartbeat be picked up then?

Is this a ridiculous thing to go to the GP with (heartbeat thing)
