I don't really think this is cause for concern, as I'm a runner, so typically have a low resting heart rate.

However, this is the lowest it has ever been and I have to think its the combination of training for my upcoming 5k race (speed work/high-ish running mileage at 30 -40km per week) along with exclusively breastfeeding my 4 month old. I EBF from the breast, no pumping (because I'm lazy).

Just thought it was interesting! Anyone else get a super low heart rate from breastfeeding? I hope it means good things for long term cardiovascular health!
