Abstract: In Ukraine in 2008 childbearing activity of women aged 35 to 39 was more than twice higher as to its level in 2001. As a result, in 2008 age-specific fertility rate for women aged 35 to 39 was 19.7 per 1,000 women, compared with 9 in 2001. During 2001–2008 their contribution to the total fertility rate was significantly increased also. In the context of different wants competition the advanced fertility level of women aged 35 to 39 can be seen as recognition of the true value of children for generation, which represent these women. Their fertility rose mainly due to the second parity births. The percentage of the first parity children born by women aged 35 and older, does not exceed 1.8% of all first-borns in Ukraine. In the view of increasing of the mean age of mother at birth the process of the concentration of births in age women groups after 35 will be enlarged. It challenges health care sphere to improve quality of medical services, particularly in the reproductive area. This level is significantly lower than the level in the most of European countries. In the distribution of children by birth order for 35–39-year-olds mothers the second parity children are twice as much as first-borns and triply more than third parity. This fact and special socio-demographic sample survey of population in childbearing age in Ukraine “Family and Children, 2008”, show the strengthening of the reproductive attitudes towards two-child family model.
Key words: fertility; late motherhood; motherhood aging; structure of fertility.
