High white cell count - should I worry?

Hi everyone
I had bloods done at 28 weeks and the came back with good iron levels but my wcc was 14.4 - has gone up from the first trimester results where wcc was 9.something. So at my 31 week appointment my bloods were retaken and midwife just called to say they’re raised again so I’m going in tomorrow for more blood to be taken. I’m 32 weeks, eat really healthily, loads of fruit and veg, take pregnacare and have had no signs of any infection! I’ve not had a full on cold since December. Is there reason to worry?
