Mixed fitting logistic regression models were performed to test the association between anemia and postpartum hemorrhage.

The prevalence of anemia of pregnant women in the 2nd and 3rd trimesters were significantly higher than 1st trimester( P < 0. 05). Most of them were mild anemia, and pregnant women with severe anemia had not been found. After adjustment confounding factors( age and type of delivery etc. ), pregnant women with anemia in the 3rd trimester showed a 6. 47 times higher risk of postpartum hemorrhage( 95% CI 1. 23-34. 23).
