    In 1999, U.S. birth rates showed a slight decline overall, but fertility rates increased. Teen birth rates continued to fall, while rates for women in their thirties and forties reached multi-decade highs.

    Area of Science:

    • Demography
    • Public Health
    • Vital Statistics

    Background:

    • Birth data are crucial for understanding population dynamics and informing public health policies.
    • Trends in birth rates, fertility, and maternal health indicators provide insights into societal changes and healthcare access.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To present preliminary data on U.S. births in 1999, analyzing trends by maternal age, race, and Hispanic origin.
    • To examine data on marital status, prenatal care, cesarean delivery, and low birthweight.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilized a dataset representing over 97% of births in 1999.
    • Data were weighted to independent control counts from State vital statistics offices.
    • Comparisons were made with final data from 1998.

    Main Results:

    • The crude birth rate slightly declined to 14.5/1,000, while the fertility rate for women aged 15-44 increased to 65.8.
    • Teen birth rates continued to decrease, with significant drops for ages 15-17 and 18-19.
    • Birth rates for women in their thirties and forties reached multi-decade highs, and the cesarean delivery rate increased by 4%.

    Conclusions:

    • While overall birth rates saw a minor dip, fertility rates showed a slight increase, indicating evolving childbearing patterns.
    • The declining teen birth rates and increasing rates among older women highlight significant demographic shifts.
    • Improvements in prenatal care utilization were noted, alongside a rise in cesarean deliveries and stable low birthweight rates.
