In this paper, a discrete-time survival model is used to model parity progression from a woman's own birth to first marriage, from first marriage to first birth, from first birth to second birth, and so on, with one model for each parity transition. Predictor variables in each model include woman's age and duration in parity as well as socioeconomic characteristics. The models are applied to birth history data.
