Government data show the birth rate fell to 18.9 per 1000 in 2002 from 14.1 a year earlier, the lowest since records began. The decline stems partly from fewer teen births, with aging population and other factors cited by officials. 4,019,280 births were recorded in 2002, down from 4,025,983 in 2001, while premature and low birth weight rates rose to multi-decade highs.
