Go to doctor: You could be having some sort of heart arrhythmia. Many are harmless, but some should be treated. Your doctor may have you wear a holter monitor for 24 hrs, which is a small portable ECG device that records your heart activity so that they can see these episodes.

Palpitations: Palpitations have many causes from anxiety through anatomic and physiologic abnormalities. The feeling of bounding usually relates to the volume of blood pumped with each palpitation. There is no simple single answer for the question. If you're bothered by the feeling should consult a dr. To see if the problem can be clarified.
