increased heart rate is part of pregnancy, because of the increase load on the heart. It is preferable not to take any medications to decrease the heart rate unless it is abnormal arrhythmia. Most medications are contraindicated during pregnancy till the third trimester, try to hydrate your self and that will help a lot.
