A member asked:
Been having frequent pvcs since i was 3 weeks postpartum, i'm now 14 weeks pp. my pvcs go away when lying down, what could cause this?

Although I would: expect you to have additional symptoms, concern is raised for development of a post partum cardiomyopathy. Are you certain the irregular beats you are experiencing are PVCs? I think you should get evaluated for these complaints. See a health care professional for an EKG or monitor and perhaps an Echocardiogram.
