Hello There.
I can understand your concern.
the pulse rate normally is in the range of 70-100 beats per minute.
have you checked for the whole one minute?
if yes, then this is called tachycardia.
there can be a lot of reasons for the increase in the pulse rate i.e., tachycardia.
certain infections, inflammatory processes, exercise, stress, anxiety etc.
i would suggest you to take her to a general physician for a general check up.
best regards,
