I recently started solid foods. Occasionally right after eating my heart rate speeds up. I can feel it. No sweating, nausea, vomiting - just faster heart rate. Is this normal? Does it mean I ate too much or too fast?

How fast are you talking about and how much of a difference is it from your normal, resting heart rate?

Not unsafe-fast, moderate exertion- fast. I didn't take my pule - should have. Maybe 50 percent increase over resting?

It is natural for blood pressure and pulse to slightly increase after eating; that's normal. Figure out what your resting heart rate is then check it after you eat when it feels faster to you. Make a note of it and if you feel something isn't quite right, call your doctor.
