Abstract
- Purpose: The purpose of this study is to determine the correlation between having a baby of the desired gender and related factors. Design and Methods: The participants were 612 women who gave birth to their babies in the postpartum unit of a hospital in Malatya, Turkey. Findings: Factors linked to having a baby of the desired gender were: having had a gender preference in a previous pregnancy (2.13 times on average; P = 0.001), their partners having a gender preference (2.87 times on average; P = 0.001 and 0.005). Practice Implications: It was found that having a baby of the desired gender was an important factor that affected some fertility characteristics. Implications for Nursing Practice: It is important to recognize that gender preference exists and investigate it as a variable. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
