Can be normal...: But you can wear a 7 day monitor to find out, called an ecardio monitor.

Not unusual: Many women note a monthly periodicity to their palpitations. No doubt, hormonal effects are influencing cardiac conduction. If it's bothersome, see your doctor for a more thorough discussion and evaluation.
