Got my routine blood test done and the WBC count is showing on the higher side. Doc didnt seem too worried but my mind is overthinking na. Is this a normal pregnancy thing or should i ask again?
Yes, it absolutely does! 🩺 The body's immune system changes to protect the baby, so WBC count rises. Just share the lab results with your doctor to stay tension-free!
Yes, mine went up too. Since I had gestational diabetes, I was super careful with my regular blood tests. It's usually a normal body response, but always let your doctor check if there's any sign of infection.
Arey haan beta, this is very common in pregnancy and my doctor also told me not to panic. Just eat healthy, fresh ghar ka khana and let your gynac see the reports once.
Yes, WBC actually goes up naturally during pregnancy as your body is working hard. I noticed this in my blood reports too when I was active with my daily walks, which my gynac had allowed. Just make sure your doctor reviews the reports to confirm it's normal.
When my blood test showed high WBC, I got so scared, but my mom and dad comforted me saying it happens. My doctor also confirmed it's just the body adapting, but always get it verified by your gynac.
