Did my routine blood test and the wbc count is showing a bit on the higher side. Im 5 months pregnant and otherwise feeling fine, no fever or anything. The lab guy said its common in pregnancy but now im a little uneasy. Anyone else had raised wbc during these months?
Oh, totally! I remember seeing my blood reports and my WBC count was higher, and I immediately thought something was wrong. But my doctor calmly explained that it's a normal physiological change during pregnancy. Your body is just working harder to protect you and the baby. So, unless your doc says otherwise, usually it's nothing to worry about.
Oh, really? I had my blood tests done recently, and my white blood cell count was a little higher than normal, and I was wondering about that! My doctor didn't say anything bad, but it made me curious. Is this common then?
I'm not exactly sure about white blood cell counts, that sounds like a medical thing. I just focused on keeping my body healthy through light walks and prenatal yoga, always with my doctor's permission. For blood reports, it's always best to ask your gynac to explain the numbers.
Arey, yeh toh doctor log ka kaam hai samajhna. Hum logon ko toh bas itna pata hai ki khoon ki kami nahi honi chahiye. Meri saas kehti thi achhe se doodh piyo aur anar khao. If your doctor isn't concerned about your reports, then usually it's normal for pregnancy changes.
Hmm, I don't really know about blood cell counts, dear. When I was pregnant, my parents and in-laws took care of everything, and I just trusted my doctor with the reports. They would tell me if anything was off. It's always good to ask your doctor directly about these medical terms.
