This means that you have HbD trait. Will this Pose you any health risk? No
If your husband is healthy and does not have similar hemoglobin, then there is a 50% chance of passing this kind of hemoglobin to your kids. Will they be at any health risk? No
Now let’s say one of your child acquires this particular kind of hemoglobin from you and that very child Marries someone who also has similar hemoglobin ,which would be quite rare, Then there will be a 25% chance that one of your grand child will have HBD disease which is not very severe condition.

Hemoglobin less than 12 is considered anemia.

People who have hemoglobin D disease have red blood cells that contain mostly hemoglobin D. Too much hemoglobin D can reduce the number and size of red blood cells in your body, causing mild anemia. Hemoglobin D disease is rare and usually does not cause serious health problems.
