During pregnancy, a woman's white blood cell (WBC) count typically increases, with neutrophils making up most of this increase. The normal range for neutrophil count in pregnancy is generally higher than in non-pregnant adults.
A normal range of white blood cells in healthy, non-pregnant adults is 4,500 to 11,000 neutrophils per microliter. The WBC count may increase during pregnancy and range from 13,200 to 15,900 neutrophils per microliter
