heart rate
My pulse has been a little high not to bad but a little more than normal should I be worried?
Blood volume increases more than 50% from its usual volume during pregnancy. The heart has to beat a little faster to keep that additional amount oxygenated. That's exactly how it's supposed to work.
No, your body is working harder to pump blood to baby and to your body. My sitting heart rate is higher than normal.
