I'm painting my bathroom. So far I've had most of the paint peel off the walls, so I removed that, patched the walls, sanded, cleaned them and primed it once. I'm painting it yellow and I need to know if I should sand my primer before I apply the yellow?

It is not necessary to sand primer to paint walls in a house but sometimes it takes a couple coats of primer to cover the old stuff.

Side issue... prior paint peeling issues in the bathroom might mean too much moisture. Check your bathroom vent fan to make sure it's still working well. If it's not moving enough air, replace it.
If you don't have a vent fan, then... (yikes, i ran out of answer)

No, it's usually not necessary.
If you are that worried about your walls being too rough still, you might consider adding another light coat of primer.

Nope dont sand... just let it dry for like 24 hours, and then you are good to go with the painting...
