"Economically incentivizing women to start having kids while they're in their 20s may be a necessary part of a strategy aimed at bringing US fertility rates back up to replacement levels, but my intuition is that it would be a very expensive one. "

Some countries already tried this with scant results. Some people, (lots of?) just don't want kids. In the past people had to have them for economic reasons or religious pressure. Did they want ALL the kids they had? No. So now people are at a place where they can have kids only if they really want them, and only how many they really want. It's a good place to be in.
