Yes , you will have to take iron tablets atleast twice and calcium tablets also twice. Recommended hb is above 11, which you should make up in 4-6 weeks. If by 7th month check up your hb is still low, u will need iron injections. Eat iron rich food like chicken, spinach, jaggery, drumstick, apples and pomegranate
