Child birth and money are typically negatively correlated.

My gut reaction is that Israel comes out on top here, because they have an extremely religious minority that likes to have babies, but also a less religious faction that acts the same way most developed economies do (dont have as many babies but work a lot). Its kind of unusual to have both in the same country. However i think that underlines how stupid a metric this is, as that is probably bad for long term ecconomic success.



Israel's secular population by itself still makes significantly more babies (per capita) than the western world. Israelis loves their babies.
