Complete blood count normal ranges for neonates after 1-3 days of birthday
Interpretation:
All blood cells count have higher values when compared with adult normal CBC values which due to increased hematopoeitc manufacturing of blood cells in newborn babies, however, a slight change from CBC birth values have seen.
Hemoglobin value from 15.0-20.0 g/dl is not a serious condition since it is within normal limits for low age of neonates.
| Unit | 1-3 days | ||
| HB | g/dl | 15.0-21.0 | |
| RBC | 10^6/ul | 4.0-6.6 | |

| MCV | fl | 92-118 | |
| MCH | pg | 31-37 | |
| MCHC | g/dl | 29-37 | |
| RETICS | % of RBCs | 0.5-3.5 | |
| PLT | *10^3/ul | 210-500 | |
| WBC | *10^3/ul | 7000-23000 | |
| Differential leucocytic count: | Absolute values/ul | Percentage % | |
| BASO | less than 210 | 0-1 | |
| EOSINO | less than 840 | 1-6 | |
| NEUTR | 1500-10000 | 30-65 | |
| STAFF | less than 1000 | 0-5 | |

| LYMPH | 2000-17000 | 40-70 | |
| MONO | less than 1890 | 2-8 | |
Note that there are slight changes from newborn CBC normal values than 1-3 days normal CBC values, which useful for differential diagnosis of medical conditions such as neonates anemia and neonates hemolytic disorders.
