Hi,

Your baby is absolutely normal. Let me mention the general range of standards which most of the doctors accept and follow :
1) MCH between 0-1 month: 31-37 pg or 34+/_2
2) Monocytes: these are a type of white blood cells. So, they are given as the number of cells it is normally 540-1800/mm3.

Your baby is perfectly alright. Please don't worry. If you are still doubtful, you can confirm the same from your pediatrician at your next visit.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Pallavi.m, Anesthesiologist
