Pregnancy Questions and Answers

Question:
How do I figure out my heart rate?
Answer:
When you're pregnant, your pulse rate (heart rate) should not exceed 140 beats a minute for more than 15 minutes during a workout. Check your pulse with the following steps.
Look at a clock with a second hand.
Place the index and middle fingers of one hand on the side of your neck where you can feel your pulse.
After finding your pulse, watch the second hand until it reaches the 12.
Begin counting the pulse beats until the second hand reaches the 2 (10 seconds).
Multiply that number by 6 to find your heart rate.
