From another comment, it looks like the father only gets half, but I assume you get weekends off too. Sweden also has 25 days of vacation.

I have a kid about every 600 days. (have 12 so far) Out of that 600 days, it looks like I'd work just 164 days. It would be 2-day weeks for decades.

That is quite a way to run a country. I think it only works because there are very few births in Sweden.

Basing policy on 99.99 percentile sized families would certainly be odd.

Policy would change what the 99.99 percentile is. If having a large family means that you don't have to work, many more people might do it.
