This national report presents final statistics from the birth certificates of the 3.67 million U.S. births registered in 2022. It describes fertility patterns and maternal and infant characteristics, placing the annual results alongside trends from earlier years.
Tables and discussion cover maternal age, birth order, prenatal care, smoking, method of delivery, payment sources, gestational age, birthweight and multiple births. State-level information and technical notes explain how the statistics were assembled and how particular measures should be interpreted. The complete publication retains every detailed table, chart, reference and methodological note; its 2024 publication date is distinct from the 2022 data year.
