Hi Abhi,
It is very much necessary that you take these iron injections now. It is going to help you a lot in the delivery process. Please do not neglect it, take the injections. Once your haemoglobin levels reach around 9 you can continue to the iron in oral tablet form.
Please take a wise decision for yourself and the baby.
Hope this helps.
