I have low iron (way lower than the normal range) in my pregnancy previously. Just delivered last month and currently breastfeeding. I am still taking my iron supplements. Did you gynae prescribe you any iron supplements? Or are you taking your own one as instructed by your gynae? It is very important, especially when nearer to delivery date.

only when u do your lab tests then u can say u have low iron levels. might want to to follow up check up with your doctor ask for opinion.
