The slowing down of population growth is real though. Trend of fewer children is across the board not just developed countries. Current trajectory estimates population to peak out in 2050-2080 and then decline, for some in their youth in next 30 or 50 years may not be that too far to completely dismiss.

2050-2080

Depending on how climate change goes, population might decline by many billions. Hopefully I’ll be dead by then.
