High heart rate and protein in urine at 16 week appointment

Hey guys, I had my 16 week appointment with my midwife this morning. My bp was normal but my heart rate was a little high - 107 when she first checked and then 100 at the end of the appointment which is borderline. I know heart rate can be slightly higher in pregnancy but is this something to worry about?
Also, when my midwife checked my urine, she told me there was a trace of protein. I’ve had bad thrush over the last week or so, could this be the reason why? Also, I used FMU in case that has an affect? The midwife didn’t really seem worried about either things but I was quite worried. Any advice guys?
A plus point though! Straight after the midwife appointment I had a private gender scan and found out I’m having a baby boy so I’m super happy ❤️

Nothing to add regarding the protein, but my heart rate throughout my pregnancy has ranged from 65-114! Nothing has ever been mentioned to me about it being concerning. Hope that helps?

Trace of protein isn’t concerning, it can be normal contamination from discharge (likely to be from the thrush).

HR of 100 is higher end of normal. Raised to 107 isn’t concerning as it then settled.
