Specializes in Cardiac Electrophysiology

You probably have: some irregular beats during the day as well but are distracted by normal activities so you don't focus on them. At night when you are lying down and nothing else is distracting you they are more apparent and you are more aware. In addition, when you are resting your heart rate slows which allows more time between normal beats for the extras to show up.
