I'm feeling some chest pain, on and off today. It's not heartburn, it's different. I always have great blood pressure (just checked a few minutes ago, still great), so I don't know if it's my heart or something else...
Did anyone else experience this in pregnancy?

I get indigestion so heartburn without the actual burn. And it just feels like chest pain. I'm guessing that's probably what you're experiencing. Baby is probably just pushing up on your disgestive system. But if it gets to the point where it's really concerning you or causing severe pain I would call your doctor to see what they think.

I've had it off and on, and was sent to a cardiologist for a checkup. They couldn't find anything wrong though, so chalked it up to muscle pain or gas.
Likely it's nothing - but chest pain isn't really something to mess around with. It's worth giving your doctor a call just to be on the safe side.

I used to get gas pains in my chest, especially once baby started pushing all my organs all over town. but if you're worried, definitely call your doctor for reassurance!

I had chest pains when I was pregnant. I gave my doctor a slew of symptoms, not knowing that I was pregnant at the time. I was sent to get a series of tests done and saw a cardiologist. I have PVC (premature ventricular contractions). It's not a big deal, and I just dealt with the occasional chest pains. It mainly bothered me in the first trimester.

Yes, when I'm sitting in certain positions. Usually I can change positions and that helps. But it is definitely worth a call to the doctor like some PPs have said.

Today my chest/sternum is kind of sore when I take a big breath...I don't know why, it's weird. I have had chest pains from anxiety before; maybe that could be the reason? Anxiety sucks; the more you think about it, the worse your symptoms get.
