It's been the same off and on since yesterday, so I think it's the baby moving! It's so neat :)
Also forgot to mention that my midwife Min brought up the IPS ultrasound. It looks like the baby will be unlikely to have Down's Syndrome! The ultrasound also said that my due date would be November 10th (based off measurements I guess) but since first time mothers generally deliver a few days late, they're sticking with the original due date of November 14.
I went back for the extra bloodwork on Thursday, so I'm waiting to hear back from that. Hopefully I just need an iron supplement and some of these issues (palpitations, low energy) will end.
As a side note, when I was at the midwifery, another midwife asked if I was using any lotion that contained cocoa butter (I am but not on a regular basis) or eating chocolate, stating that it could be linked to the arrhythmia. I decided to forgo both for a few days, as Tuesday morning was pretty bad palpitation-wise, and it's been much improved. Not sure if it was the lotion or the chocolate milk I was drinking, but they feel a lot less uncomfortable.
