Hello
Thanks for your query.
Right now, you should consult a gynecologist and have your recent blood tests done.
They should include hemoglobin, repeat ferritin, MCH, MCHC, MCV etc.
Continue taking the haematinics and vitamin C during pregnancy.
Iron and calcium supplements are am ust during pregnancy.
Low hemoglobin will affect the pregnancy if you do not treat it
Take care.
