This is a sub-study nested into the existing NICHD Global Network for Women's \& Children's Health Research Maternal Newborn Health (MNH) registry that is a prospective, observational population-based registry in Eastern Maharashtra, India. This study will assess the prevalence of iron deficiency anemia (IDA) and non-iron deficiency anemia (NIDA) in Eastern Maharashtra and will assess the association between both conditions and neo-natal and infant health outcomes (birth weight, gestational age at birth, weight-for-gestational-age z-score and infant hemoglobin concentration at 6 weeks). The investigators will also assess the relative strength of the association between anemia in the 1st trimester and 3rd trimester (after iron needs have increased but mothers may have been taking iron folic acid (IFA) supplements for several months) and infant health outcomes.
