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?

If baby’s getting iron in the diet (veg, meat), then there’s no need to have iron fortified fm:) I prefer those natural sources too. I make green leafy veg + potato puree as part of the daily meal, and that works very well:)
