And contrary to previous research, the new report hints that rearing many children can take its toll on fathers, as well as mothers. </P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://space.newscientist.com/article.ns?id=dn10875&feedId=online-news_rss20"><P>Demographer Ken Smith at the University of Utah in Salt Lake City, US, and Dustin Penn, at the Austrian Academy of Sciences, mined the extensive genealogical records kept by the Mormons in the state. The researchers analysed data from 21,000 couples married in Utah between 1860 and 1895.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://space.newscientist.com/article.ns?id=dn10875&feedId=online-news_rss20"><P>Even after adjusting for a woman's age, they found that mothers who bore more children had shorter lives. For example, more than 5% of women died within a year of giving birth to any child after their eleventh. By comparison, about 1% of women died in the year following the birth of their first, second or third child.</P></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/1492BFE0-0337-4BDB-8A60-2A1FC80B7B4F/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content9.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
