Resting bpm at 20 wks, normal?

Question

I've noticed my blood pressure feeling high recently.  I just double checked it, resting, no coffee, and it's 100 bpm. I'm 20 weeks. I didn't have any issues with my first pregnancy blood pressure wise so I'm not sure if this is high or not. Anyone know?

Answer

Mine has been 100-110 the whole pregnancy(I'm having twins) and my blood pressure has been great too, 110/65-70...my OB has never been concerned about my resting heart rate. I think it's pretty common to be higher as your heart is working overtime to deal with the extra blood volume. Hope that helps some! ❤️

Answer

Are you talking about your pulse? If so it can run a little higher during pregnancy. My pulse is usually 90s-100bpm preggo and my BP usually is about 105/60. If you are worried or feel like your heart is pounding (palpitations) give your Dr a call. Xx
