Only if I'm really, really, scared/nervous. Which doesn't happen.
I can pretty much any time. hope it does'nt mean anything too bad.
I had this conversation with BoB a couple weeks ago!
I can't see my heart beat in my chest. There are things in the way.
I can sometimes. I can certainly feel it sometimes. Once in awhile it skips a beat and I have to smack myself on the chest a few times. It mocks me, the beast!
Why did you have to look in the mirror to hear?
I can see it better in my stomach as I watch it pulse with each beat.

You forgot the T in heart, so they thought you said hear rather than heart lol.Quote:

i can see my heart beat in my belly when i lie down. :D
my damn breasts get in the way.
oh and thae annoying fat gets in the way too.
i'd be freaked out if i could though :eek:
That is scary. No, I can't! xD BUT....I could feel my hamsters brains. :( They were nice and squiggly.
Yes it does. Just like if your hand is the same size as your face it means you have cancer.Quote:

Nope, unless you have an inferior aorta with very high blood pressure or you heart just has a very high cardiac output/stroke volume you wont see it beating in your stomach. That is the peristalsis of your gut as it moves your food along your gut.Quote:

If you are thin, which usually means you are kind of fit, you should be able to see your heart beating. Other than skin and the sternum, there isn't much in the way.
Yeah, all the time. I see my chest earthquaking. I fixed this by taking a spear and stabbing where it moves. Aaahhh, bliss.
I don’t understand how you can see your heart beating. (?) Aren’t there things in front of it to protect it from any damage like your lungs and ribs and skin?
:confused: :confused: :confused:
All the time. Sometimes when my heart is really pumping, you can see it through my clothes/bedspreads, too. I've once had it so bad when I was lying face-down that my bed was moving slightly, too. That was kind of amusing and freaky at the same time. But yeah, my heart does beat kind of hard.

My stomach pulses with every beat of my heart. ALL the time. I can't be moving food along that often. I could not eat all day and it still does it :confused:Quote:

OK, whatever you say. But peristalsis is a passive process that is always happening.
