  1. Figures denote odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals. Reference group: Maternal age 20-30 years.
  2. CS = Caesarean section; GA = gestational age at delivery; N/A = not applicable; PPH = postpartum haemorrhage; VD = vaginal delivery.
  3. Adjusted for BMI and smoking habits at first antenatal care visit, parity and year of delivery. CS and preeclampsia also adjusted for gestational age.
  4. Caesarean section was subdivided into elective and acute CS from 1999.
  5. ¥ Epidural analgesia and perineal rupture among vaginal delivered women.
