    U.S. births increased in 2000, with higher rates for older women and unmarried mothers, while teenage birth rates hit historic lows. Cesarean delivery rates also rose, but prenatal care and low birthweight rates saw no improvement.

    Area of Science:

    • Demography
    • Public Health
    • Reproductive Statistics

    Background:

    • The United States experienced shifts in birth trends in the late 20th and early 21st centuries.
    • Understanding demographic changes in births is crucial for public health planning and resource allocation.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To present preliminary data on U.S. births for the year 2000.
    • To analyze birth trends by maternal age, race, Hispanic origin, marital status, and access to prenatal care.
    • To report on rates of cesarean delivery and low birthweight.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilized data representing over 96% of births in the U.S. for 2000.
    • Employed weighting methods to align with independent control counts of births.
    • Compared 2000 data with final data from 1999.

    Main Results:

    • Total births increased by 3% from 1999 to 2000, with a 2% rise in the crude birth rate.
    • Fertility rates increased for women aged 20-44, while teenage birth rates (15-19 years) declined to a historic low.
    • The number of births to unmarried women reached a record high, though rates for unmarried teenagers decreased; cesarean delivery rates increased, while first-trimester prenatal care and low birthweight rates remained unchanged.

    Conclusions:

    • Birth trends in 2000 showed a divergence, with increasing rates among older and unmarried women but declining rates among teenagers.
    • The rise in cesarean deliveries warrants further investigation, especially in conjunction with stagnant rates of early prenatal care and low birthweight.
    • These preliminary findings highlight evolving patterns in U.S. births and associated maternal and infant health indicators.
