  1. Notes: OR odds ratio, CI confidence interval, ANC antenatal care. “Any IPV” is any physical or sexual violence by partner in lifetime. “Postnatal visit” is postnatal visit for mother or newborn within 3 days. All Models use heteroskedasticity-robust standard errors clustered at the country level. Model 1 does not include any controls. Model 2 controls for dichotomous variables for each country. Model 3 controls for dichotomous variables for each country, subnational region, dichotomous variables for the respondent’s age in years, dichotomous variables for the respondent completing primary, secondary or tertiary education, a dichotomous variable for current marital status, total number of children born, dichotomous variables for wealth quintile, and a dichotomous variable for urban residence
