Newborn in Japan, parents Japanese and Australian

I read the link below and I’m a bit confused. It states that a child who has citizenship in 2 countries has to choose (Japan or Australia).

I have been advised previously that you need to naturalise (apply for Japanese citizenship) really soon after Birth.

Does this mean a child less than 20 in age can also be an Australian citizen, and I can apply for that as well?

P.s. baby due any day now :).
