Heart rate increase during pregnancy
I am 32 weeks pregnant. My resting heart rate is around 100 to 110 most of the time and sometimes it comes around 90. I am taking labetalol 100mg morning and evening. I am having BP for the past one year(before pregnancy itself). Before two months I have taken ECG and Echo. That was normal. Please confirm about this high heart rate? Do I need to take any tests? Also sometimes I am feeling rising heart rate when I do any simple activity and then it's settled down when I lay down.
