Yes it is low and area of concern along with pregnancy
You need to visit with ggynaecologist she will suggest you consultation with haematologist to know 5he cause it is pregnancy induced ketogenic or due to raised blood pressure
So haematologist and gynae both will together manage
Treatment in terms of of follow up counts infusion need ,and mode and time if delivery

If the platelet count falls below 50K then there will be increased risk of bleeding during delivery. As you have written there’s falling platelet count over time she needs to be investigated as to why is this happening. Meet a haematologist in your city and try to get a work up done as to the cause.
Another thing keep platelet transfusion ready during delivery in case of excessive bleeding and also some non related donor with same blood group in case of fresh blood transfusion during delivery
