Heart rate during pregnancy

Hey mama, your heart rate going up is totally normal in pregnancy because your body is pumping more blood for baby, so try not to worry too much. That said, since you're still in the early weeks, might be good to check with your PD or gynae just to get a baseline and make sure everything is tracking well for you personally. A few of my mum friends mentioned their heart rates were all over the place in the first trimester, so you're definitely not alone in noticing this. They all said it settled down a bit as pregnancy progressed, so hang in there.
