“…due to the later birth of the first child), or they may be the result of an unplanned conception. As confirmed by several studies (Slabá et al, 2021;Šťastná et al, 2017, the birth of the first and second child at an advanced reproductive age can also often be the result of an unplanned postponement. It turns out that the most important individual factors of late fertility can include the health status of the woman and partner (and especially age-related problems to getting pregnant), labour market problems, and overall material conditions, as well as the absence of a suitable partner (Šťastná et al, 2017, 2019).…”

“…Although the process of voluntary and planned postponement of the beginning of reproductive pathways may be an important factor in the increasing impact of late fertility, it may not be a decisive factor. Several analyses (Berrington, 2004;Šťastná et al, 2017Slabá et al, 2021;Toulemon and Testa, 2005) confirm that postponed reproductive plans are often not implemented by women in terms of the number of children and the age at which they want to give birth (Slabá et al, 2021). In this sense, Šťastná et al (2017, 2019) point to the aspect of unplanned postponement, which can be one of the important factors in the growing impact of late fertility.…”

Late motherhood and spatial aspects of late fertility in Slovakia

Shifting childbearing to later reproductive ages is reflected in all European populations. Late motherhood also changes, from the point of view of parity structure, since nowadays, the beginning of reproductive pathways is increasingly realised at the age of 35 and over more often. The regional dimension of this phenomenon is significantly overlooked, however. The main aim of this paper is to explore how the level and the impact of late motherhood has changed from a spatial perspective. We use Slovakia as a case study population characterised until the end of the 1980s by an early beginning of reproduction and its concentration in the first half of the reproductive period, and by relatively significant socio-economic, cultural and demographic differences. At the same time, we point out the changes in late motherhood in terms of parity structure. Finally, through linear regression models, we try to identify which of the selected factors may condition the differences in share of late fertility and the significance of first births at advanced reproductive ages.

“…The unfavourable reproductive conditions during the pandemic, however, will likely be reflected in the intensity of childbirth, because the first results for Czechia and Slovakia for 2022 indicate a certain decrease in the total fertility rate. Several foreign (Bongaarts andFeeney 1998 andKohler et al 2002), as well as Czech and Slovak studies (Sobotka 2003, Marenčáková 2006, Potančoková 2008, Slabá et al 2021and Šprocha 2021a have shown that the above-mentioned changes in childbearing intensity are closely associated with the postponement process, and though it has mainly affected the first-born children in both countries, its effects can also be observed in other parities (Šťastná et al 2017 and 2019). In this case, too, the postponement process initially occurred somewhat more dynamically in Czechia.…”

Demographic processes and brief overview of population research in Czechia and Slovakia after dissolution of the common stateThe study makes a brief overview of the demographic processes and research on them in Czechia and Slovakia during the past three decades, the period following the splitting of the common Czechoslovak state. General trends in selected demographic processes are identified and described. Research is summarised and critically evaluated in three basic areas: an analysis of recent trends, forecasting and, finally, applied demographic research. The study focuses more on applied research and forecasting because they have been less frequently appearing in the recent review studies. We intentionally omit the structures and general population dynamics. While recognizing several advancements in developing research topics and methodologies, and their increasing representation in prestigious journals, this study also highlights certain reservations and future challenges inherent to these developments.

The fertility gap, which indicates the difference between the planned and actual number of children born, can be explained by the shift in parenthood to older ages and is associated with the non-attainment of one’s intended reproductive plans. This paper focuses on the gap in the timing of entry into parenthood, i.e. between the planned and actual age at the birth of the first child. The study is based on data from the Women 2016 survey which re-interviewed women of fertile age from the second wave of the Czech Generations & Gender Survey conducted in 2008. At the population level, the fertility timing gap differs across generations. While for Czech women born between 1966 and 1971 the planned age exceeded the actual observed age by one year, the realisation of fertility occurred two years later than planned for the youngest generation (1983–1990) included in the study. At the individual level, the later-than-planned realisation of fertility was found to be related primarily to partner-related factors.
