Household bargaining over fertility: Theory and evidence from Malaysia
We develop and test a model of household bargaining over fertility when transfers between spouses are possible. The model makes precise how the fertility preferences of each spouse translate into fertility outcomes.

We find little equilibrium play, but rather that it is most common to agree to equal splits in efficient stages, i.e. stages with max...

A key determinant for these patterns is the relative size of bilate...
