Welcome to HealthcareMagic,
Normal hemoglobin during pregnancy is more than 11 gm/dl. This is the minimum, ideally it should be around 13 to 14. So you should take this seriously as it should cross at least 11. If the tablets you are consuming are not helping you, kindly visit you gynecologist at an alternate iron tablet will be required. Hope that answers your question.
