That : That is a very good question and it is good that you are thinking ahead. To be safe, you should be evaluated by a cardiologist and by a high-risk perinatologist. Keep a close eye on any symptoms you have, and notify a physician immediately if you have a concern. Particularly, if you develop any palpitations, light-headedness, fainting, or chest discomfort you must be seen immediately.
