Hello

I understand your concern and i want to tell you that its pretty normal for heart rate to increase in pregnancy. If she do not feel any discomfort like palpitations then you need not do anything.

In pregnancy blood volume is increased to meet the requirements of the developing fetus due to which heart has to pump faster to circulate this increased volume of blood.
