It's normal to have a higher heart rate in pregnancy. Mine ranges from 96 to 116. That blood pressure is healthy. High is considered 140/90 and severe is 160/100. Your doctor should measure you every appointment and should notice if it's high. Mine went up over 140 for about a month then went back down to 128, so they're happy with it.
