Author has studied the average birth weight using the birth register from Syktyvkar and Vorkuta of Komi Republic. The prevalence of anemia was higher in Vorkuta. Infants born to woman with anemia were heavier than infants of non-anemic mothers were (Sykvyvkar, р<0,001). Babies of anemic mothers from the third or more deliveries were heavier than from the first deliveries (Vorkuta, p<0,001).
