Objective: To identify the profi le and assess the self-esteem of postpartum women, to characterize their babies and partners, and to verify the association of these characteristics with the occurrence of intimate partner violence (IPV). Method: Crosssectional study with 207 postpartum women assisted in a public clinic. Results: There was no statistic correlation among the sociodemographic variables, personal and obstetric characteristics with the occurrence of IPV. The postpartum women who showed low self-esteem presented a higher exposure risk to IPV (p<0.01; OR=2.01 and CI 95% [1.40-2.87]). The mothers of the babies that were born with low weight (less than 2,500 g) had almost twice the chances of suffering violence (p<0.05; OR=1.74 and CI 95% [1.00-3.03]). The women whose partners did not consume alcohol presented a lower probability to be exposed to IPV (p<0.05; OR=0.182 and CI 95% [0.03-0.93]). Conclusion: Women's low self-esteem, babies' inappropriate weight and consumption of alcohol by partners were correlated to the occurrence of IPV.

Método: Estudo transversal, com 207 puérperas acompanhadas em um ambulatório público. Resultados: Não houve associação estatística entre as variáveis sociodemografi cas, características pessoais e obstétricas com a ocorrência de VPI. As puérperas com baixa autoestima apresentaram maior risco de exposição à VPI (p<0,01; OR=2,01 e IC 95% [1,40-2.87]). As mães dos bebês que nasceram com o peso inadequado (2500g) apresentaram quase duas vezes mais chances de sofrerem violência (p<0,05; OR=1,74 e IC 95% [1.00-3.03]). As mulheres cujos companheiros não faziam uso de álcool apresentaram menos chances de exposição à VPI (p<0,05; OR=0,182 e IC 95% [0.03-0.93]). Conclusão: A baixa autoestima das mulheres, o peso inadequado do bebê e o uso de álcool pelo companheiro estiveram associados à ocorrência de VPI.
