Dear Lactnetters,
My "heart rate" search in the archives seems to turn up only information
about baby's heart rate. A mother I am working with writes (permission to
post), "Sometimes I notice an increase in heart rate when I nurse or pump.
More often from nursing. It lasts maybe 5 minutes and can happen at the
beginning or midsession... I haven't actually measured my HR but I can feel
it rise. I have a family history of cardiac issues but none personally."
Should this mother be concerned? What might account for this observation?
