Can increased heart rate be a sign of pregnancy?

Hello all, I'm 6dp5dt and not feeling any symptoms aside from slight sore boobs/ cramping from the progesterone. However, twice today I've had heart palpitations; so I checked my fit bit data and my resting heart rate has increased to be 80+ per day in the last week - when in all the history of my app it's always been 70s/ 60s... can this be a symptom? Or more likely a result of the progesterone pessaries?

My resting heart rate did increase up to 6 weeks then did dip back down to around 67 and then rose steadily to around 100 during pregnancy but I had twins

@ivfgottwins thank you! I can only hope :) of course it could just be because of the extra stress maybe! Trying desperately not to test!

Congratulations!! I also monitored my heart rate after ET and mine increased in my successful cycle. There isn’t much information on it so just posting in case it helps anyone else
