im almost 9 weeks and ive had this since day one and it does feel so hard like its beating out of my chest exactly....I'm sure it may get worse for me too. I think it has something to do with the fact our bodies have more blood volume in pregnancy.

i have the same problem sometimes, i am 22 weeks and i will just be sitting here and i will feel like my heart is about to explode, it is true though when your pregnant your blood volume increases by at least 50% to carry more nutrients and oxygen to the baby, but what did your doctor say about it?

Ask for a thyroid check at your next doctors visit. I had a very fast heartrate and it turned out to be hyperthyroidism.
