Hemoglobin is a protein in red blood cells that is crucial for transporting oxygen throughout the body.

  • In newborns, the level of hemoglobin can vary depending on factors such as gestational age and overall health.
  • Understanding normal hemoglobin levels in newborns is important for assessing their health and development.

Key Points

  • In newborns, the typical range of hemoglobin levels is generally between 17 to 19 grams per deciliter.
  • This higher level of hemoglobin is necessary to support the infant's oxygen transport needs, particularly after birth when the baby transitions from receiving oxygen through the placenta to breathing independently.
  • Newborns typically have higher hemoglobin levels compared to adults due to their adaptation to the intrauterine environment.

Hence, the correct answer is '17-19 Gram'.
