The birth rate of Iceland in 2021 was 16.5%higher than usual, and the birth rates of Finland and Norway were 7%and 5%higher.
"LANDSPítali (National Hospital)", located in Reykjavik, Iceland, was born from this hospital.
In 2021, due to the birth of a large number of babies, there was a serious ward in the obstetrics and gynecological clinics here. Some pregnant women could only go to the emergency room to give birth.
The number of pregnant women in childbirth has increased sharply, so that the nurse is not enough. D Medicals in Poland, Australia and Germany have arrived in Iceland to reinforce. Even 70 -year -old midwife was recruited back to help pregnant women produce.
In 2021, Iceland successfully gave birth to 4,879 babies
The influence of "baby tide" in 2021 soon penetrated into all aspects of Nordic life.
The first is difficult for children to go to school.
The 24 -year -old Kjartansdóttir wanted to find a day care for his child Júlí, and contacted 29 people in a row before finally winning it.
Then there is an increase in the demand for baby activity space.
In the children's space of the public library in Iceland's Cafelavik, there are usually a few children to play, but now there are more and more mothers who take children to play. The library is planning to build a larger entertainment area to deal with more and more children.
After the number of infants increases, its supporting industries have also ushered in a new wave of development.
For example, in 2022, the Mosfellsbaer swimming pool of Reykjavik is often full. The gold medal swimming coach Snorri Magnússon here also taught Iceland's presidential swimming.
His unique is to stand alone for 4 months, which is very popular with local parents.

According to the information of the OECD, in 2015, Norway's expenditure in children's conservation accounted for 2.0%of domestic GDP. On average, it was equivalent to spending $ 1,8500 for each child.
Denmark is closest to Norway in parenting expenditure, with a expenditure of $ 16,000 per child. Finland's parenting expenditure is the lowest, US $ 12,000 per child, accounting for 1.2%of the GDP.
However, the average level of the State Organization countries is 0.8%of GDP.
Therefore, Nordic has a nearly crazy attachment to children's conservation. Here is the most understandable childcare for parenting.
In Sweden, parents can enjoy a total of 480 days, about 16 months of paid holidays, and they are allocated by themselves. This maternity leave has always been effective before the child is 12 years old, allowing parents to grow up with their children.
In 2021, Iceland will extend salaries and childcare leave from 10 months to 12 months.
Like Iceland, Denmark is a 12 -month paid holiday, while Norway's holidays are the shortest, only 4 months.
Under the above care, a real Nordic parenting life slowly emerged.
The book "Swedish Children's Conservation" records two tasks of Swedish children's conservation:
1. It must enable parents to combine parents with paid work or learning.
2. Support and stimulate children's development and learning, and contribute to good growth conditions.
