Formula non iron fortified

I’ve been supplementing with fm since baby was 7.5 mo. Now baby is 10.5 mo and I just realised the brand of the fm I’m giving is not iron fortified. Should I be bothered by it? Is it a serious or bad thing that I should change to an iron fortified one immediately?

Iron is one of an important source , but if your baby is getting enough iron from his solid food , I think it should be fine . Does your baby gain weight within the 3 months ?

That should be fine if he's eating well .
