Summary:The study was undertaken to determine whether there was correlation between time of having sex of married couples and the time for giving birth to the child. Three research questions were raised and answered by administering questionnaires. Questionnaires were used to collect data from 92 married people from the three provinces of Zambia and the clinic. The five points Likert rating scale was used in determining whether there was correlation between time for sex and time for birth. Data was analyzed using simple frequency counts, percentages and analysis of variance. The results of the study showed that there was correlation between time for sex and birth and Zambia like any country has almost the same sex ratio. The reason for this correlation was that most married couples have sex mainly at night when they were free from their busy schedules of work
