Increased heart rate during pregnancy?

[NewMum26]

So I decided to take my blood pressure at home over the last few days and my blood pressure is great if anything a little low which is normal and always has been for me.
I was surprised though as my heart rate has been between 90 - 105 beats per minute each time I've taken it. I'm sure it's never normally this high. I have read it increases during pregnancy even more so in the hits trimester and I am 33 Weeks currently. Just wondered if anyone else had experienced this.

I think it can be common but I'd check with your midwife just in case.

I had this in my late stage pregnancy, a few occasions my heart was going so fast I could feel it pounding in my chest and it would skip a beat too. I contacted my midwife and she said it was normal for end stage pregnancy. If you're concerned however don't hesitate to contact your EPU

I asked my midwife about this last week at my 28 week appointment as mine has been 90-100 when I've checked last few weeks but she wasn't worried!

Mine has been 110-120 resting since about 30 weeks. Higher when midwife takes it because it's so hot there. She referred me to gp who said it's a known phenomenon in pregnancy and nothing to worry about. Baby's heart rate is the important one apparently.

Its pretty normal. I had my heart rate measured by my GP when I was 6 weeks and it was 90 beats per minute and I was very relaxed at that point. The GP said nothing about it so I came home and googled about increased heart rate in pregnancy and was reassured to find its completely normal for it to be in the range of 90-100 beats per minute in pregnancy, its because your heart is working harder to beat all the blood around your system.
