The U.S. birthrate increased for the first time since 2014. Data from the federal government showed that there were 3,659,289 births in 2021, an increase of about 46,000, or 1 percent, from the year before. That follows a steep drop in 2020 of about 4 percent. Since 2007, the birthrate in the U.S. had declined every year except 2014, when there was a modest increase before continuing the descent in 2015. The increase further muddled the question of [how the pandemic has affected the birthrate](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRkb99MP0TYaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyMi8wNS8yNC91cy9iaXJ0aC1yYXRlLWluY3JlYXNlLmh0bWw_Y2FtcGFpZ25faWQ9NTcmZW1jPWVkaXRfbmVfMjAyMjA1MjQmaW5zdGFuY2VfaWQ9NjIyNzkmbmw9ZXZlbmluZy1icmllZmluZyZyZWdpX2lkPTc3Njc0OTUyJnNlZ21lbnRfaWQ9OTMyMzgmdGU9MSZ1c2VyX2lkPWFhNDkxZWY3ZjFkOTY0ZTQ5NzlmYjc4NGU3NGUwMWQ3VwNueXRCCmKGTFqNYno6EWFSG3RyaXN0cmFtYmFsZHdpbjkwQGdtYWlsLmNvbVgEAAAAAA~~). The large drop in 2020 suggested women might have been delaying pregnancy.
