What should my resting heart rate be while I am pregnant?

Answer by  kdem (551)

Your resting heart rate during pregnancy should be just like normal anywhere from 60 beats per minute to 100 beats per minute. Anything more than 100 would be tachycardic and anything below 60 in bradycardic and both of these ailments need medical especially during pregnancy. Blood pressure may however, be elevated during pregnancy and that can be normal.

During pregnancy the heartbeat increases to fifteen more beats per minute.It must be from 85-90 beats per minute as it accommodate the body's change in size to bigger one.

Your heart rate during pregnancy should be a little higher than your normal heart rate. On average, a woman's heart rate is 70, which may increase to 85-90 during pregnancy.

It should be between 75 and 115 but thats just an average. If you know your heartrate before being pregnant just add 5-20 beats per minute to that and that is what it should be. But basically any heart rate below 140 is fine and healthy for a pregnant woman.
