This proportion was significantly higher among women who already had children<strong> (77.9%)<\/strong>.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, our data showed that women who wanted children had an average of 2 to 3 reasons why they had not yet starting their families, pointing to the fact that there are multiple factors involved in this decision.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Work_and_job_stability\"><\/span>Work and job stability<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Our survey found that work is the single largest factor causing women to delay motherhood.
