10 days postpartum and having heart palpitations since delivery. they come and go, but usually happen for a few hours every day. worse after eating.

Could be worrisome: But if the palpitations are not persistent I would expect it to be a side effect of the postpartum fluid and hormonal shifts. You should follow-up soon with your OB. At the least you need your vitals checked, and possibly some blood tests and EKG.
