During pregnancy a ladies iron and calcium requirement is increased ,if she does not take iron tablets ,she'll develop iron deficiency anaemia. Which can cause problems during pregnancy and at time of delivery If she doesn't take calcium baby will get calcium from her but her bones will become weak. Ask her to take medicines as advised by her doctor.
