Hello dear,I understand your concern.In my opinion the chest pounding,dizziness ,tiredness are also seen in anaemia.So I suggest you to do hemoglobin level and rule out anaemia.This is routinely seen in pregnancy.Take iron rich and good nutritional diet.Have adequate fluids.Always lie in left or right lateral position to increase the blood flow to fetus.As the blood sugars are normal it might not be the cause.
