Rationale 1: The pulse will increase 1015 beats/minute during pregnancy, with 6090 beats/minute being the normal range.
Rationale 2: Any adventitious breath sounds are abnormal.
Rationale 3: Temperature norms in pregnancy are slightly higher due to fetal metabolism: 36.237.6C (9899.6F).
Rationale 4: A blood pressure lower than 135/85 is considered normal.
