Should be fine.: An elevation of the heart rate is not unexpected, as the presence of the growing baby reduces venous return of blood from the lower body, among other reasons. Should not be an issue going forward, but have your Obstetrician monitor at your prenatal visits. And remember your prenatal vitamins.
