Thanks for the query

If the flutter is exactly like a butterly flutter then it is your baby. :-) Which is a good sign. IT will become more prominent as u get closer to the due date

Welcome to Healthcare Magic
Are you pregnant. Since you are experiencing fluttering in the lower left side of chest it could be due to muscle fasciculations which can be normal. If you are having feeling of shortness of breath, feeling of heart pounding or fluttering it could be PVCs. In this case you can consult a Cardiologist for proper diagnosis and management.
