Once women in a company get pregnant, more are added, according to a well-known myth. Apparently there is actually something to this phenomenon, as a recent study shows. The health portal lifeline.de reported on the study, according to which increased pregnancies would occur in a company following a colleague pregnancy announced.
Advice and action from colleagues
We humans are influenced and shaped by our environment. And we spend most of the day at work with our colleagues, so it’s only a logical conclusion that a colleague’s desire to have children can also affect our own needs, writes the portal.
“It was crazy. When my colleague became pregnant, I suddenly realized: Now is the right time for me, too,” confirmed the mother of a four-month-old daughter to the Lifeline portal. And the researchers at the State Institute for Family Research at the University of Bamberg are also certain following surveying 42,000 women: Contact with a pregnant colleague or her offspring strengthens one’s own desire to have children and the confidence to take the plunge.
Getting pregnant following the colleague
Working women who become pregnant might therefore trigger a chain reaction. The probability of pregnancy at Colleagues doubled, the researchers might have observed.
Joking is oftenA pregnant woman rarely comes alone“. That is now proven.
