Interesting topic. I got pregnant when I was 18. I was diagnosed with POTS when I was 13. I felt pretty good during my pregnancy and continued on my propanalol the whole 9 months. Since he was born, life has been one big roller coaster ride. He has had medical problems since the day he was born. At 13 months he had a feeding tube inserted because his stomach didn't work properly. As a toddler and preschooler he always complained his heart was "beeping" fast. I took him to cardiologist after cardiologist and I finally found one to listen to me. Even though the others had holtered him and he had documented heart rates of 200+ even while sleeping I was told he was fine. I decided to take him to Children's Hospital and he had a tilt test done and he passed out within minutes. He was then diagnosed with POTS and syncope. Braden is now 8 and struggles everyday just to even get out of bed. We have tried numerous medications with some relief but not enough. I feel guilty everyday knowing that I passed this on to my son. I just don't think I could do it again. Those of you with children, do your children show any symptoms? Elizabeth
