Question
What’s the normal range of hemoglobin (HB) and hematocrit (HCT) for a 12-month-old baby?
Answer
The normal range of hemoglobin (HB) for a 12-month-old baby is typically between 110-140 grams per liter (g/L), while hematocrit (HCT) varies by gender, with male babies around 0.36-0.44 and female babies at 0.34-0.42. However, these values are for reference only and actual numbers may vary due to individual differences. If you are concerned about your baby’s blood indices, it is recommended to consult a pediatrician for a detailed examination.
