    Resting Heart Rate?

    Usually my heart rate has been around 70bpm this pregnancy. This afternoon I have been very grumpy and hot. I can feel my heart pumping away so I just took my pulse... 112bpm. Do I worry?

    Is it up & down or constantly high? If it's fluctuating then I would say that's probably normal (mine increases every time I have a BH) but I'm no expert

    If it's constantly high today, I'd try chug down on some water, preferably at least 3 glasses over maybe an hr or so, and see how you feel, you might be a bit dehydrated especially if it's hot where you are, and that pushes your HR up to try cope.

    Re: Resting Heart Rate?

    I haven't had much water at all today :/ oops. Plus have been having heaps of BH (or praying it's actually early labour lol). I have just had a big yell at hubby and earlier had a big grump at woolworths online for substituting certain items with completely diff products....
    Stress?
    Trying to calm down. Hoping that's it.
