    To find an exact statistic you might want to narrow your question down to "How many children are born to each woman in her reproductive cycle?"

    This is known as the Total Fertiliy Rate (TFR). The TFR for Americans is 2.09 in 2006.

    This usually means that there are about 2 children for every mother.

    Here is the CIA Factbook http://www.cia.gov/cia/publications/factbook/geos/us.html
