结局指标
主要结局
Hemoglobin
时间窗: Change in hemoglobin from baseline to one day postpartum
Maternal Hemoglobin will be measured at baseline, at the time of admission for labor and delivery and on post partum day one. Postpartum day 1 hemoglobin was estimated from hematocrit by dividing by 2.941.
Incidence of Gastrointestinal Side Effects (i.e. Constipation, Upset Stomach) as Measured by a Validated Questionnaire
时间窗: From enrollment to delivery, which will be an average of 10-12 weeks
Record the incidence of gastrointestinal side effects (i.e. constipation, upset stomach) as measured by a validated questionnaire.
次要结局
- Incidence of Blood Transfusion at Delivery(At delivery)
