DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:<p><em><strong>Birth Timing and Spacing: Implications for Parental Leave Dy
 namics and Child Penalties</strong></em></p><p>Abstract:</p><p style="text-
 align: justify;">We develop new facts on relationships between the timing a
 nd spacing of births, parental leave take-up, and labor market outcomes usi
 ng Danish administrative data. We document substantial heterogeneity in age
  at first birth across maternal skill levels. Average spacing of pregnancie
 s is also tighter for highly skilled mothers, resulting in higher fertility
  levels and time on parental leave soon after first birth. We estimate even
 t studies by skill level and find that much of child penalties in earnings 
 and participation after first birth can be explained by incapacitation effe
 cts from parental leave around subsequent births, especially for the highly
  educated.</p>
