Follow successive statistical releases rather than treating a reporting date as the day births occurred. Preliminary and final figures describe annual patterns, not proof that one policy caused a change.
Statistical publications through February 2026, covering births in 2024 and 2025. Later revisions may differ.
Dates without a time use the local date of the event.
The preliminary 2025 release reported a total fertility rate of 0.80, compared with 0.75 for 2024.
A higher annual rate does not by itself reverse population decline or establish the cause of the change.
