    En esta investigación analizamos si el deseo de (más) hijos de uno de los miembros del núcleo conyugal predice el deseo del otro; investigamos las variables sociodemográficas y contextuales que interfieren con la concordancia en el interior de los núcleos conyugales; y analizamos si el sexo de los hijos nacidos vivos (HNV) está vinculado al deseo individual de (más) hijos, y a la concordancia o discrepancia entre los deseos de los miembros del núcleo conyugal. El análisis de los datos obtenidos de la Encuesta Nacional sobre Niveles de Vida de los Hogares (ENNViH) mostró una asociación significativa entre la composición por sexo de los HNV, el deseo de los cónyuges de tener hijos adicionales, y el acuerdo en pareja respecto a los planes futuros de reproducción.

    In this paper, we analyze whether the desire to have (more) children of one member of the conjugal nucleus predicts the desire of the other member. We investigate the sociodemographic and contextual variables that interfere with agreement within the conjugal nuclei and we analyze whether the sex of live born children (LBC) is linked to the individual desire to have (more) children, and to the concordance or discrepancy between the wishes of members of the conjugal nucleus. The analysis of the data obtained from the National Survey on Household Living Standards (ENNViH) showed a significant association between the composition by sex of LBC, the desire of the spouses to have more children, and agreement within the couple regarding future reproduction plans.
