First of all a Hb of 9.7 in a 9.5 month old baby is surely concerning. Again there is failure thrive. You should immediately consult a paeditrician. It may not be mere iron deficiency anaemia!
There are many other disease for this types of symptoms. Doctor need full workout on your baby for exact diagnosis.
Changing formulae no going to help you at all if there is any disease behind this.
