my pulse had a third beat. is this an irregular heartbeat?

Accepted Answer

Maybe: When you listen to your heart, you typically hear a "lub-dub, lub-dub" sound.  If you hear a "lub-dub,  thud" on occasion, this might be an extra beat, usually a premature beat from the upper chamber of the heart (may less often be from lower chamber, PVC).   This can be clarified with a heart monitor.  Check with your doctor to determine if this monitoring is necessary.
