The haemoglobin isn't too low dear.
But yes in pregnancy u need iron supplements for proper growth of baby and yrslf.
So do take iron tablet for now. Regular even after u deliver for atleast 3-6 month.
Tiredness/breathlessness/palpitations/restlessness/irritability all point towards anemia.
Take one single dose of ALBENDAZOLE 400 mg at night if not allergic to any such medication.
Take care
Stay safe
