The 33-year-old shared a photo of the drip, and then another snap from a hospital bed.
Marnie, who is expecting baby-number-three, this time posted a photo of her hand with the drip in.
She wrote: 'Why am I always anemic,' followed by a crying face emoji.
Aside from the two hospital photos, Marnie hasn't yet shared any other updates.
Marnie is expecting a baby girl with singer partner Casey.
She said the last few months have been hard physically, but she is excited to jump straight back into her content creating after giving birth.
Last month, the star opened up to The Sun in an exclusive chat, saying: 'I don't feel at my most confident right this second, I've got to be honest.
'I am six months pregnant and pregnancy isn't really for me - I find it really tough.
'I've been really sick and I've really struggled.

'At this second I don't feel my sexiest, but since reaching my 30s, I've recently felt the most confident within myself, physically, mentally, emotionally.
'I've just felt so strong and strong minded and my best.'
The star had a very difficult first birth and while pregnant with her second child she insisted she would not have any more.
She said at the time: 'I would not go to three,' she said. 'I think you've got to find the balance for yourselves.
"We want to enjoy our lives as well. We've not waited too long to have kids and I feel like having two, we can give them the best life possible.'
Marnie previously described her first labour, which lasted 28 hours, as traumatic and insisted on having a c-section the second time round.
Marnie was diagnosed with a chronic UTI in 2016 and after giving birth to baby Rox in 2019, her symptoms began to get a lot worse.
Marnie got engaged to X Factor singer Casey back in 2020, and they wed in May 2023.
The pair met on the show Single AF in 2017.
They confirmed their relationship just a few months after the show ended - a move that is against show rules but it didn't seem to worry the smitten love-birds.

Prince Harry & his upstart wife must be honest about their money – they've made millions from the royals, claims expert

PRINCE Harry and Meghan Markle must be 'honest' about their money, having made millions from the royal family. This comes as Kensington Palace has confirmed Prince William pays the highest rate of income tax on his private estate, the Duchy of Cornwall, however, the amount was not disclosed. 5 Broadcaster Esther Okraku argued that if some people think the Prince of Wales should reveal the tax amount, so should his brother Prince Harry. Speaking on The Sun's Royal Exclusive show, she shared: 'It's an uncomfortable conversation that I think is completely unnecessary, and I think if you're going to have those conversations, then you might as well have them about Harry as well, he inherited, what, £10 million from the late Queen Mother.' The Sun's Royal Editor Matt Wilkinson chimed in: 'Again, that's all very secretive. We don't know the exact figures.' Esther continued: 'Exactly, but why is no one asking him? 'I mean, him and his upstart wife arguably haven't earned that money by any means. 'You know, why aren't we criticising them? Because it's just distasteful. 'And I think we should extend the same courtesy to William.' HARRY'S GOLDMINE Both Harry and William received a hefty inheritance from their late mother, Princess Diana, who died in 1997. The People's Princess left just shy of £13 million to her sons, which was reduced to £8.5 million after death duties. This swelled to over £20 million thanks to years of savvy investments by royal advisors. Harry spent hours slagging the royals on Oprah and Netflix, there's only one way he'll win William round He may be the youngest, but Harry reportedly got a bigger inheritance from their great-grandmother Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon, known as the Queen Mother, after she passed away in 2002. She left an estimated £70m fortune, including works of art and house contents, to her only surviving daughter, Queen Elizabeth II. But years prior in 1994, the Queen Mother also put two-thirds of her money into a trust fund for her great-grandchildren. 5 5 William and Harry were set to share about £14 million from the investment, the BBC reported in 2002. However, it was reported that the bulk of the cash went to Harry because William will 'benefit financially' by becoming king. William is first in line to the throne, while Harry is fifth in line. He follows William's children with Princess Kate: Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex stepped down as senior working royals in 2020, and have since relocated to California and live there with Prince Archie, six, and Princess Lilibet, four. As well as using Prince Harry's inherited money, they have since earned cash through their deal with Netflix, Harry's Spare memoir, and Meghan has also launched her As Ever brand. WILLIAM'S CASH This comes as it has been revealed that Prince William received an annual private income of £22.9 million in the last financial year, which fell from £23.6million for the previous year. Unlike his father, King Charles, he declined to reveal his tax bill. It comes after questions on Duchy incomes, which pays for the Waleses' role in the Royal Family, were raised on Channel 4's Dispatches. Wills pays the top rate of tax on his income from the estate. He promotes affordable housing through the Duchy. How Meghan and Harry are investing their Netflix millions HARRY and Meghan have begun investing their Netflix millions in a property portfolio. They have bought a new home in Portugal, around the corner from Harry's cousin Princess Eugenie and her husband. But the Sussexes, who have been spending an increasing amount of time apart, do not plan to live in their new pad, The Sun understands. It is not known if the property will be rented out, used for Airbnb-style holiday lets or used purely to park money. But it is seen as the first step of putting earnings from their TV and book deals into a global property empire. 'They're being smart with their money,' a source said. They pocketed £75million from streaming giant Netflix where they laid into fellow royals in a six-part series. Meanwhile Harry, who got a £15million advance for his autobiography Spare, also inherited £8million from the late Queen Mother after turning 40 in September. Palace insiders have been concerned about what will happen when the Sussexes run out of cash. They have huge overheads, forking out a fortune on security in the US and for when Harry visits the UK. And they are still paying a mortgage on the £11million Montecito mansion they bought after quitting as working royals in 2020. Insiders say the Portugal home will be part of a financial portfolio which will include more real estate.

Off their boat races! Revellers at Henley Regatta look a little worse for wear after hours of drinking and hot weather

Henley Regatta revellers yesterday looked worse for wear as they swigged wine and beers while partying on boats on the Thames. Empty bottles of £40 rose sparkling wine, and £28 M&S St Gall champagne stood upright on the grass. People dressed in glamorous outfits who were keen to keep the party going sat on the banks of the Thames and stood on boats swigging from bottles of alcohol and pint glasses. One group of young rowing fans wearing boating jackets sat cross-legged on the grass as they poured vodka into a hip flask. Meanwhile, one young gentleman, wearing a cream blazer with a black trim, clasped an orange Sainsbury's bag as he sat on a brick wall beside a young woman, a four-pint bottle of milk, and two one litre bottles of diet coke. Another suited male was seen slumped to his knees on the grass, while elsewhere some pals sat on the floor sipping beer. Empty pint glasses, cans of cider and lager, and a half-drunk bottle of La Mortuacienne Mandarin lemonade sat abandoned on a pub picnic bench. The rowing event, which was established in 1839, takes place every year and sees teams compete in more than 300 races along the river in Oxfordshire. People keen for the frivolities to continue as the fifth day of the regatta came to a close were later spotted enjoying after-parties as they stood and danced on boats. The six-day event comes to its culmination today with a series of finals races. The popular sporting event, which was established in 1839, comes hand-in-hand with a day of picnics and drinking. Teams compete in over 300 races of an international standard on the Thames, which can include Olympic rowers as well as crews new to the event. It was first staged in 1839 and has been held annually every year since, except during the two World Wars and 2020 due to Covid-19. In 2021 it was announced that women would be allowed to wear trousers to the Henley Royal Regatta for the first time since it was established in 1839. The long-standing sartorial rules - which asked for over-the-knee skirts and no trousers, and a blazer or smart jacket - crumbled under pressure from campaigners who branded the former dress code 'symbolic of an era when women couldn't compete and were just there to look pretty'. Olympian Sir Steve Redgrave was chairman of the boating event until 2024 when he stood down after ten years in the role. He was succeeded by Richard Phelps who previously competed at the Barcelona Olympics in 1992 as well as rowing for Cambridge in the Boat Races. Mr Phelps told the Henley Herald in May one of the main focuses of the committee for this year event was 'achieving gender parity'. He also told how 'good relations with the town and the goodwill of the residents are important'. 'We'll make sure that whatever we do is to enhance both,' he said.
