Hi!
Low Hemoglobin ,MCV,MCH indicate microcytic hypocchromic anaemia.Iron deficiency is the most important cause especially in children who take too much cow's milk.Your child is showing normal RBC and RDW hence must be ruled out for beta thallasemia trait which is quite common.A futher testing with complete iron panel and hemoglobin electrophoresis will make the picture clear.
Hope this helps you!Take care!
