The study reveals a marked positive relationship between the women's fertility and the number of infant deaths. Mothers' fertility is found to be higher in the families where high infant deaths occurred. The present study suggests that higher fertility of the Ladiya mothers (women) may compensate the loss of children due to high infant mortality. ER -
