ANC: Antenatal Care, SVD: Spontaneous Vaginal Delivery, Ref: Reference category. From Anemia to erythrocyte suspension transfusion before birth, each variable is categorized as “Yes and No,” and “No” is the reference. Adjusted for maternal sociodemographic and obstetric characteristics (maternal age, marital status, educational status, and gravidity). *** =P ≤ 0.001, **=P ≤ 0.005, *=P < 0.05.
