This paper explores the relationship between birth rate and work load. More babies are born in the period when there is less work to be done but there are also other factors relevant to the number of conceptions and these include opportunities for conception, physical stamina, schedule of physical activity, leisure patterns, holidays, knowledge of contraception, climate and household temperatures, and differential fertility.
