A member asked:
I"m pregnant 20w. what a white blood count of 12000 means? is ma fetus ok?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Normal variation: Pregnancy is a known physiologic cause of increase in white cell count. If you do not have fever, you are not likely to have an infection. Blood count of 20, 000 is not a reason for the baby to be affected.
