- Description
A stork struggles to carry several babies at once. Text reads in large 'From heir to maternity' (wordplay on film title 'From here to eternity')and further text reads 'Population decline predicted in south or will it? The stork thinks 'A misconception'. Context; figures compiled by the Southern District Health Board, as part of a review of maternity services in the region, show a disturbing downward trend in the number of women of child-bearing age based on the latest Census figures. The number of women in the main baby-making bracket (age 15-44) was expected to drop almost 15 per cent in Southland, from 23,130 in 2006 to 19,770 in 2021. There is a glimmer of hope, however, with some in the baby business reporting an increase in activity in the fertile population. It was probably a reflection of the "boom echo" or "baby boomers' babies having babies". (Southland Times 30 November 2010)
