Fast pulse rate?

So I'm 37 weeks and yesterday I went for a non stress test because of decreased fetal movement. They told me that the baby was doing just fine her movements were perfectly ok but they were worried about my heart rate. They said it was over 130. And now I have to see dr at the end of the week to monitor it. Has anyone else had high heart rate? Does it effect the baby or labor?

It was high when I 1st started seeing this dr at about 25 weeks. He only checked the 1st visit and seemed very worried about it and then never re checked again so I assumed it was fine. Then at the hospital they told me it was high, almost as high as the babys and that I needed to see my dr to keep monitoring. I'm just confused cuz my dr tells me everything I experience throughout this pregnancy is normal and then the hospital was worried? I guess Im scared it my shoot up even higher during labor?

Is it always high, or just sometimes? I know towards the end I was getting heart palpatations, that increased my heart rate every once in a while!
