But average family size fell in a year from 1.94 children to 1.85. The ONS report for 2013 said the number of babies born had decreased by 4.3% since 2012. The average age of mothers in 2013 increased to 30.0 years, compared with 29.8 years in 2012. 2  More than a quarter (26.5%) of births were to mothers born outside the UK, compared with 25.9% in 2012. 3  The smallest decreases in fertility were for women aged 35-39 and 40 and over.
