Dear colleagues we are working in Aberdeen on a health research project addressing the questions: what decisions do women (couples) after a Caesarean Section (CS) in terms of future children; Or does a CS mean that a women is likely to have further children compared to someone in similar socio-economic conditions but with a normal delivery? We soon found we had to address the question of one-child families. Unfortunately, a literature search gives us predominantly material on China. We would like to hear from or about anybody involved in research in on-child families in industrialised countries? On behalf of my colleague Maureen Porter and I, thank you very much in advance for any information/comments/thoughts. Edwin Dr. Edwin R. van Teijlingen Co-ordinator M.Sc.
