Brief Answer:
Yes
Detailed Answer:
Hi
Your weight gain is fine for 26 weeks pregnancy. Your weight gain will start now and if you take appropriate diet.
Anemia is a concern and that's why you feel tired. Please take iron tablets regularly as prescribed by doctor.
If you dont take iron tablets or have good diet regularly there are possibilities of having small growth restricted baby. Hence have healthy balanced diet.
Let me know if you have any more questions.
