Notes: Standard errors are shown in parentheses. The table is abbreviated; full model results are available from the authors upon request. Variables not shown are age of each grandparent (ref. = 60–64), age of wife (ref. = 25–29), age of husband (ref. = 25–29), years of exposure since last birth (ref. = Year 1), and calendar year (ref. = 1986).

Prob(Any Birth) refers to annual probability parity progression to birth n conditional on achieving parity n – 1 for any n from 2 to 5.
