However, the pregnant adolescent is much more likely to develop complications, such as poor weight gain during pregnancy, premature labor, and pregnancy-induced hypertension. In addition, the neonate is more likely to be of low birth weight. Some of these complications are related to the pregnant adolescent’s physical immaturity, rapid growth, interest in fad diets, and generally poor nutrition; other complications may stem from the adolescent’s need to deny her condition or to her ignorance of early signs of pregnancy, which often delays initiation of prenatal care.

(Professional Guide to Diseases (Eighth Edition))

Typical clinical features of cardiovascular disease during pregnancy include distended jugular veins, diastolic murmurs, moist basilar pulmonary crackles, cardiac enlargement (discernible on percussion or as a cardiac shadow on chest X-ray), and cardiac arrhythmias (other than sinus or paroxysmal atrial tachycardia). Other characteristic abnormalities may include cyanosis, pericardial friction rub, pulse delay, and pulsus alternans.

Decompensation may develop suddenly or gradually, with persistent crackles at the lung bases. As it progresses, edema, increasing dyspnea on exertion, palpitations, a smothering sensation, and hemoptysis may occur.
