The one-child rules have been completely lifted, for several years now, and the govt. is encouraging the public to have more children. The goal is to return to replacement rate (2.1 children).

If you are right, Kate, there is something very strange about this 2008 Pew Research poll:

China's "one-child policy" is overwhelmingly accepted. Roughly three-in-four (76%) approve of the policy, which restricts most couples to a single child.
...
These are the latest findings from the 2008 Pew survey of China. Face-to-face interviews were conducted with 3,212 adults in China between March 28 and April 19, 2008, a period which followed the March 10 onset of civil unrest on Tibet and preceded the May 12 earthquake in China's Sichuan Province.
