Abstract: The paper examines how female employment influences the women’s desire and probability to give birth to the second or third child. The research is based on the data of Russian Monitoring Longitudinal Survey of 2000-2009. The main conclusions stem from multinomial and probit regression analysis and show that having a job as well as high wage and a big number of working hours negatively associate with having two children for a female in Russia. However, for employed women the most important thing influencing childbirth decision is the wage size of both spouses/partners.
