  • Title: Have national trends in fertility between 1986 and 2006 occurred evenly across England and Wales?
    Author: Tromans N, Natamba E, Jefferies J, Norman P.
    Journal: Popul Trends; 2008; (133):7-19. PubMed ID: 18847064.
    Abstract:
    During the past 20 years fertility patterns within England and Wales have changed considerably. The total fertility rate experienced a prolonged decline during the 1990s and hit a record low in 2001. Since then the level of fertility has increased fairly rapidly. Over the two decades, fertility has been constantly increasing at ages above 30, and as a consequence the mean age of motherhood has been rising. This article explores fertility trends within statistical regions and local authorities to improve our understanding of changes in fertility at the subnational level between 1986 and 2006.
