“…This is not unexpected given the gradual fall in MCV that is known to occur postnatally in these infants. 12 Thus, the rise in the percentage of Hb F and the fall in the percentage of Hb A in the period after transfusion therapy is completed can be expected based on these and other observations, but not predicted by MCV.…”

“…Hemoglobin concentrations between 7 and 8 g/dL occur commonly in preterm infants who have not undergone significant phlebotomy losses. 6 EPO concentrations are significantly lower in anemic preterm infants than those found in adults given the degree of anemia. 7,8 The normocytic, normochromic anemia accompanying low EPO concentrations has been termed the anemia of prematurity.…”

“…The hemoglobin concentration decreases over the first 2 to 3 months of life, remains stable over the next several weeks, then slowly rises in the fourth to sixth month of life in response to increased Epo concentrations [22,23]. The decrease in hemoglobin concentration has thus been termed a “physiologic nadir,” rather than true anemia.…”
