150 BPM...Is That Normal For ME?????

I am about 7 1/2 weeks pregnant.  I have been feeling my pulse is very fast.  Yesterday my resting heart rate was 120 or so.  Right now it's 150-160 BPM.  What could be causing this???  This seems very fast....Help!

Your heartrate should not exceed 140 bpm while pregnant. Definitely consult your doctor. I keep having rapid heart issues and called my doctor today. More than likely I'll have to get some tests done on my heart. Oh joy, but at least we'll figure out what's going on.

To get my pulse rate up to 150 I have to do at least 10 minutes of cardio to get it that high. A resting rate that high should be discussed with your doctor right away.

my pulse was very high on a recent hospital visit. i was told that it was a sign i may be fighting something, like a water infection.

I would consult your Dr 60-100 is normal for people with non health conditions.  If i was at work and a pt had a pulse rate of 150 i would have to call a rapid response because that is very hi.

Im not sure what could be causing it, but give the Dr a ring
