This dataset contains counts of live births for California as a whole based on information entered on birth certificates. Final counts are derived from static data and include out of state births to California residents, whereas provisional counts are derived from incomplete and dynamic data. Provisional counts are based on the records available when the data was retrieved and may not represent all births that occurred during the time period.

The final data tables include both births that occurred in California regardless of the place of residence (by occurrence) and births to California residents (by residence), whereas the provisional data table only includes births that occurred in California regardless of the place of residence (by occurrence). The data are reported as totals, as well as stratified by parent giving birth's age, parent giving birth's race-ethnicity, and birth place type. See temporal coverage for more information on which strata are available for which years.

The data (name, year of birth, sex, and number) are from a 100 percent sample of Social Security card applications for 1880 on.

This report summarises data from the 2003 Northern Territory (NT) Midwives’ Collection. It includes population characteristics of mothers, maternal health status, antenatal information, conditions and procedures used in labour and childbirth as well as birth outcomes of all births that occurred in 2003. While the NT Midwives’ Collection contains information on both NT resident and interstate residents who gave birth in the NT, the focus of this report is NT residents who gave birth in the NT. Notes and Corrections: On 24 October 2011 an error was observed in table 32. There has been an update to the introduction and to Table 32.

Connecticut's Birth to Three System (B23) supports families with infants and toddlers that have developmental delays to learn new ways to make everyday activities enhance the child's development. Birth to Three is administered pursuant to Part C of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA). Once families with children below age 3 are referred, the child's development is evaluated for eligibility, and if eligible the family can receive supports until the child no longer has delays or until the child turns age 3. Because an infant can be referred within days of being born, a family may be enrolled for almost three full years. Connecticut's Birth to Three System publishes data annually by the fiscal and calendar year and longitudinally by birth cohort. CTData.org carries both sets of data, here and in 'Birth To Three Annual Data'. Birth cohort data looks at all children born in a particular year and tracks whether the family received B23 support. For example, the latest full year available in this dataset is for those children born in 2013 since they turned age 3 sometime in 2016. The 2013 data will tell you how many children there were whose families received support at some point during the first three years of the child's life. CTData calculates several indicators using total number of births in a town. This provides users with a general idea of the relative number of children in the community eligible for services. Using births is not perfect since families move in and out of town so it should not be used as an exact figure but as a general reference point. Below are how the indicators are calculated: % Referrals = Number referred divided by total number of births % Evaluations = Number evaluated divided by total number of births % Eligible = Number eligible divided by total number of births % Individual Family Service Plans (IFSP) = Number with IFSP divided by total number of births % Served = Number served divided by total number of births % Exited to Early Childhood Special Education = Number exited to early childhood special education divided by total number of births 'Referred that are Evaluated' represents the percent of children that were evaluated out of the total number of children referred to the Birth to Three System. 'Evaluated that are Eligible' represents the percent of children who were deemed eligible out of the total number of children that were evaluated. 'Eligible that Recieve IFSP' represents the percent of children whose family recieved an Individual Family Service Plan out of the total number of eligible children.

This is an official NYC Health Department dataset. the Health Department does not endorse datasets using this data that may be created by others. This dataset lists active child care programs regulated under NYC Health Code Article 47 (Group Day Care) and Article 43 (School-based Child Care). Health Code Article 47: https://www.nyc.gov/assets/doh/downloads/pdf/about/healthcode/health-code-article47.pdf Health Code Article 43: https://www.nyc.gov/assets/doh/downloads/pdf/about/healthcode/health-code-article43.pdf These data can be used to map NYC Health Code regulated child care programs and filter by attributes, such as location, ages served, facility type. It can also be used to answer questions such as how many group child care (GCC) programs are in a specific ZIP code. Only active group child care (GCC) and school-based child care (SBCC) programs are displayed in this dataset. Child care programs with a 'preliminary', 'suspended', or 'closed' status are not included.

Here are a few use cases for this project:

1. Infant Monitoring Applications: This model can be utilized in baby monitoring systems to ensure that the baby is in a safe and correct position while sleeping or playing. It can help to detect if the baby's head or ears are covered, potentially preventing risks like suffocation.

2. Pediatric Healthcare Tools: This model could help in the development of healthcare applications designed to track the growth and development of a baby. The analysis of baby's head and ear shapes over time could provide valuable data to doctors.

3. Educational Apps for Parents: "test_02" could be used in apps to help first-time parents understand and identify normal and abnormal head/ear shapes and positions, aiding them in early detection of any potential issues.

4. Child Security Systems: In security applications, this model may help to identify and track babies in crowded places. It could alert if the baby's face (head/ear) disappears from view, providing an extra layer of security.

5. Product Testing: Companies manufacturing products for babies, like headphones, hats, or pillows, could leverage this model to ensure that products fit adequately on a baby's head and don't interfere with their ear.

The WIC Infant and Toddler Feeding Practices Study–2 (WIC ITFPS-2) (also known as the “Feeding My Baby Study”) is a national, longitudinal study that captures data on caregivers and their children who participated in the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) around the time of the child’s birth. The study addresses a series of research questions regarding feeding practices, the effect of WIC services on those practices, and the health and nutrition outcomes of children on WIC. Additionally, the study assesses changes in behaviors and trends that may have occurred over the past 20 years by comparing findings to the WIC Infant Feeding Practices Study–1 (WIC IFPS-1), the last major study of the diets of infants on WIC. This longitudinal cohort study has generated a series of reports. These datasets include data from caregivers and their children during the prenatal period and during the children’s first five years of life (child ages 1 to 60 months). A full description of the study design and data collection methods can be found in Chapter 1 of the Second Year Report (https://www.fns.usda.gov/wic/wic-infant-and-toddler-feeding-practices-st...). A full description of the sampling and weighting procedures can be found in Appendix B-1 of the Fourth Year Report (https://fns-prod.azureedge.net/sites/default/files/resource-files/WIC-IT...). Processing methods and equipment used Data in this dataset were primarily collected via telephone interview with caregivers. Children’s length/height and weight data were objectively collected while at the WIC clinic or during visits with healthcare providers. The study team cleaned the raw data to ensure the data were as correct, complete, and consistent as possible. Study date(s) and duration Data collection occurred between 2013 and 2019. Study spatial scale (size of replicates and spatial scale of study area) Respondents were primarily the caregivers of children who received WIC services around the time of the child’s birth. Data were collected from 80 WIC sites across 27 State agencies. Level of true replication Unknown Sampling precision (within-replicate sampling or pseudoreplication) This dataset includes sampling weights that can be applied to produce national estimates. A full description of the sampling and weighting procedures can be found in Appendix B-1 of the Fourth Year Report (https://fns-prod.azureedge.net/sites/default/files/resource-files/WIC-IT...).

Congenital conditions are variations of body structure or function which are present from birth. A baby's condition (or conditions) may be due to an underlying genetic variation, or exposure of the mother to factors that disrupt normal development. In many cases, no specific cause is found. Increasingly, conditions can be detected during pregnancy through antenatal screening. The Congenital Conditions and Rare Diseases Registration and Information Service for Scotland (CARDRISS) was set up in 2018 to establish a new national, prospective register of babies with congenital and rare conditions (the CARDRISS register). As an interim measure whilst the register is being established, the CARDRISS team have brought together existing national records to produce a linked dataset on babies with congenital conditions (the Scottish Linked Congenital Condition Dataset, SLiCCD). As the CARDRISS register is not yet up and running, this publication uses SLiCCD to provide current best estimates of the occurrence of major congenital conditions among pregnancies ending in Scotland in 2000 to 2020 inclusive. Live born babies diagnosed before their first birthday; miscarriages and stillbirths from 20 weeks of pregnancy onwards; and terminations of pregnancy at any stage of pregnancy are all counted. We will update and publish these estimates every year until the CARDRISS register can be used as the source of national statistics on conditions. This open data includes 2 tables. Table 1 includes data on the numbers and rates of congenital conditions at Scotland level. Table 2 includes data on rates per congenital condition per health board. The rates are per 10,000 births.

About this dataset

Context

The dataset tabulates the Newborn population distribution across 18 age groups. It lists the population in each age group along with the percentage population relative of the total population for Newborn. The dataset can be utilized to understand the population distribution of Newborn by age. For example, using this dataset, we can identify the largest age group in Newborn.

Key observations

The largest age group in Newborn, GA was for the group of age 60 to 64 years years with a population of 81 (12.05%), according to the ACS 2019-2023 5-Year Estimates. At the same time, the smallest age group in Newborn, GA was the 85 years and over years with a population of 8 (1.19%).

Abstract: In the 2014 film “Be My Baby,” director Christina Schiewe tells the story of Nicole, a self-confident young woman with Down syndrome who wants to become a mother. Details: 18-year-old Nicole lives with her mother, Monique. Nicole’s mother attends university and works part-time as a cashier to earn enough money. Nicole’s grandmother supports Monique financially and occasionally watches Nicole while Monique goes to work. Nicole works at the vocational school for people with disabilities. At the university, Monique attends a lecture by faculty member Dr. Olaf Schnier. Olaf and Monique also meet privately outside the university and start a love affair. Contrary to what her mother assumes, Nicole has sexual needs. Her sexual interest becomes evident in various situations. For example, Nicole is interested in a brochure with sexual content at work or throws air kisses to her supposed steady boyfriend and work colleague, Mani. In addition, Nicole also wants to start a family of her own, ideally with the boy next door, Nick, who she is in love with. On the way to work, Nicole sees a woman on the bus with her, increasing Nicole’s desire to have a family. However, her mother thinks this a bad idea, as she continues to see Nicole as a child and not as a woman. Moreover, her grandmother wants to go one step further and sterilize Nicole. Nick, who has known Nicole for a long time, is just 15 years old and is currently studying for his high school diploma. He is an outsider and under constant pressure to please everyone, especially his father and friends. Nicole sees something special in Nick and gives him the affection and unconditional love he needs. Eventually, they sleep together, and Nicole gets pregnant accidentally. The pregnancy is first noticed when Nicole vomits several times for no supposed reason, and Monique takes her to the doctor. Surprised by this, Monique confronts Nicole in the presence of Nicole’s grandmother and demands to know the baby’s father. Nicole admits that the father is Nick. Nick does not want to know about Nicole’s pregnancy and denies being the father. But one thing is certain for Nicole: she wants to keep the baby and thus fights for her right to self-determination. While everyone is in favour of abortion, Nicole goes on a hunger strike until Nick stands by her and accepts his paternity. Nicole eventually gives birth to a healthy child, warmly welcomed by both families, including Nicole’s grandmother and Nick’s family.

Abstract copyright UK Data Service and data collection copyright owner.Background:The Millennium Cohort Study (MCS) is a large-scale, multi-purpose longitudinal dataset providing information about babies born at the beginning of the 21st century, their progress through life, and the families who are bringing them up, for the four countries of the United Kingdom. The original objectives of the first MCS survey, as laid down in the proposal to the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC) in March 2000, were:to chart the initial conditions of social, economic and health advantages and disadvantages facing children born at the start of the 21st century, capturing information that the research community of the future will requireto provide a basis for comparing patterns of development with the preceding cohorts (the National Child Development Study, held at the UK Data Archive under GN 33004, and the 1970 Birth Cohort Study, held under GN 33229)to collect information on previously neglected topics, such as fathers' involvement in children's care and developmentto focus on parents as the most immediate elements of the children's 'background', charting their experience as mothers and fathers of newborn babies in the year 2000, recording how they (and any other children in the family) adapted to the newcomer, and what their aspirations for her/his future may beto emphasise intergenerational links including those back to the parents' own childhoodto investigate the wider social ecology of the family, including social networks, civic engagement and community facilities and services, splicing in geo-coded data when availableAdditional objectives subsequently included for MCS were:to provide control cases for the national evaluation of Sure Start (a government programme intended to alleviate child poverty and social exclusion)to provide samples of adequate size to analyse and compare the smaller countries of the United Kingdom, and include disadvantaged areas of EnglandFurther information about the MCS can be found on the Centre for Longitudinal Studies web pages.The content of MCS studies, including questions, topics and variables can be explored via the CLOSER Discovery website. The first sweep (MCS1) interviewed both mothers and (where resident) fathers (or father-figures) of infants included in the sample when the babies were nine months old, and the second sweep (MCS2) was carried out with the same respondents when the children were three years of age. The third sweep (MCS3) was conducted in 2006, when the children were aged five years old, the fourth sweep (MCS4) in 2008, when they were seven years old, the fifth sweep (MCS5) in 2012-2013, when they were eleven years old, the sixth sweep (MCS6) in 2015, when they were fourteen years old, and the seventh sweep (MCS7) in 2018, when they were seventeen years old.End User Licence versions of MCS studies:The End User Licence (EUL) versions of MCS1, MCS2, MCS3, MCS4, MCS5, MCS6 and MCS7 are held under UK Data Archive SNs 4683, 5350, 5795, 6411, 7464, 8156 and 8682 respectively. The longitudinal family file is held under SN 8172.Sub-sample studies:Some studies based on sub-samples of MCS have also been conducted, including a study of MCS respondent mothers who had received assisted fertility treatment, conducted in 2003 (see EUL SN 5559). Also, birth registration and maternity hospital episodes for the MCS respondents are held as a separate dataset (see EUL SN 5614).Release of Sweeps 1 to 4 to Long Format (Summer 2020)To support longitudinal research and make it easier to compare data from different time points, all data from across all sweeps is now in a consistent format. The update affects the data from sweeps 1 to 4 (from 9 months to 7 years), which are updated from the old/wide to a new/long format to match the format of data of sweeps 5 and 6 (age 11 and 14 sweeps). The old/wide formatted datasets contained one row per family with multiple variables for different respondents. The new/long formatted datasets contain one row per respondent (per parent or per cohort member) for each MCS family. Additional updates have been made to all sweeps to harmonise variable labels and enhance anonymisation. How to access genetic and/or bio-medical sample data from a range of longitudinal surveys:For information on how to access biomedical data from MCS that are not held at the UKDS, see the CLS Genetic data and biological samples webpage.Secure Access datasets:Secure Access versions of the MCS have more restrictive access conditions than versions available under the standard End User Licence or Special Licence (see 'Access data' tab above).Secure Access versions of the MCS include:detailed sensitive variables not available under EUL. These have been grouped thematically and are held under SN 8753 (socio-economic, accommodation and occupational data), SN 8754 (self-reported health, behaviour and fertility), SN 8755 (demographics, language and religion) and SN 8756 (exact participation dates). These files replace previously available studies held under SNs 8456 and 8622-8627detailed geographical identifier files which are grouped by sweep held under SN 7758 (MCS1), SN 7759 (MCS2), SN 7760 (MCS3), SN 7761 (MCS4), SN 7762 (MCS5 2001 Census Boundaries), SN 7763 (MCS5 2011 Census Boundaries), SN 8231 (MCS6 2001 Census Boundaries), SN 8232 (MCS6 2011 Census Boundaries), SN 8757 (MCS7), SN 8758 (MCS7 2001 Census Boundaries) and SN 8759 (MCS7 2011 Census Boundaries). These files replace previously available files grouped by geography SN 7049 (Ward level), SN 7050 (Lower Super Output Area level), and SN 7051 (Output Area level)linked education administrative datasets for Key Stages 1, 2 and 4 held under SN 8481 (England). This replaces previously available datasets for Key Stage 1 (SN 6862) and Key Stage 2 (SN 7712)linked education administrative datasets for Key Stage 1 held under SN 7414 (Scotland)linked education administrative dataset for Key Stages 1, 2, 3 and 4 under SN 9085 (Wales)linked NHS Patient Episode Database for Wales (PEDW) for MCS1 – MCS5 held under SN 8302linked Scottish Medical Records data held under SNs 8709, 8710, 8711, 8712, 8713 and 8714;Banded Distances to English Grammar Schools for MCS5 held under SN 8394linked Health Administrative Datasets (Hospital Episode Statistics) for England for years 2000-2019 held under SN 9030linked Hospital of Birth data held under SN 5724.The linked education administrative datasets held under SNs 8481,7414 and 9085 may be ordered alongside the MCS detailed geographical identifier files only if sufficient justification is provided in the application. Users are also only allowed access to either 2001 or 2011 of Geographical Identifiers Census Boundaries studies. So for MCS5 either SN 7762 (2001 Census Boundaries) or SN 7763 (2011 Census Boundaries), for the MCS6 users are only allowed either SN 8231 (2001 Census Boundaries) or SN 8232 (2011 Census Boundaries); and the same applies for MCS7 so either SN 8758 (2001 Census Boundaries) or SN 8759 (2011 Census Boundaries).Researchers applying for access to the Secure Access MCS datasets should indicate on their ESRC Accredited Researcher application form the EUL dataset(s) that they also wish to access (selected from the MCS Series Access web page). The MCS Longitudinal Family File can be used for research that focuses on a single sweep of MCS or cross-sweep. The file contains the outcomes of MCS families and weights for each sweep released so far. This means that it can be used to follow cases longitudinally. Specific information on how the weight variables have been constructed for each sweep is provided with the User Guide of the respective sweep. The user guide of the MCS longitudinal family file provides guidance on specific variables. For the fourth edition (September 2020), the data file has been updated to include the weights for the seventh survey (MCS7).

The National Child Development Study (NCDS) is a continuing longitudinal study that seeks to follow the lives of all those living in Great Britain who were born in one particular week in 1958. The aim of the study is to improve understanding of the factors affecting human development over the whole lifespan.

The NCDS has its origins in the Perinatal Mortality Survey (PMS) (the original PMS study is held at the UK Data Archive under SN 2137). This study was sponsored by the National Birthday Trust Fund and designed to examine the social and obstetric factors associated with stillbirth and death in early infancy among the 17,000 children born in England, Scotland and Wales in that one week. Selected data from the PMS form NCDS sweep 0, held alongside NCDS sweeps 1-3, under SN 5565.

Survey and Biomeasures Data (GN 33004):
To date there have been ten attempts to trace all members of the birth cohort in order to monitor their physical, educational and social development. The first three sweeps were carried out by the National Children's Bureau, in 1965, when respondents were aged 7, in 1969, aged 11, and in 1974, aged 16 (these sweeps form NCDS1-3, held together with NCDS0 under SN 5565). The fourth sweep, also carried out by the National Children's Bureau, was conducted in 1981, when respondents were aged 23 (held under SN 5566). In 1985 the NCDS moved to the Social Statistics Research Unit (SSRU) - now known as the Centre for Longitudinal Studies (CLS). The fifth sweep was carried out in 1991, when respondents were aged 33 (held under SN 5567). For the sixth sweep, conducted in 1999-2000, when respondents were aged 42 (NCDS6, held under SN 5578), fieldwork was combined with the 1999-2000 wave of the 1970 Birth Cohort Study (BCS70), which was also conducted by CLS (and held under GN 33229). The seventh sweep was conducted in 2004-2005 when the respondents were aged 46 (held under SN 5579), the eighth sweep was conducted in 2008-2009 when respondents were aged 50 (held under SN 6137), the ninth sweep was conducted in 2013 when respondents were aged 55 (held under SN 7669), and the tenth sweep was conducted in 2020-24 when the respondents were aged 60-64 (held under SN 9412).

A Secure Access version of the NCDS is available under SN 9413, containing detailed sensitive variables not available under Safeguarded access (currently only sweep 10 data). Variables include uncommon health conditions (including age at diagnosis), full employment codes and income/finance details, and specific life circumstances (e.g. pregnancy details, year/age of emigration from GB).

Four separate datasets covering responses to NCDS over all sweeps are available. National Child Development Deaths Dataset: Special Licence Access (SN 7717) covers deaths; National Child Development Study Response and Outcomes Dataset (SN 5560) covers all other responses and outcomes; National Child Development Study: Partnership Histories (SN 6940) includes data on live-in relationships; and National Child Development Study: Activity Histories (SN 6942) covers work and non-work activities. Users are advised to order these studies alongside the other waves of NCDS.

From 2002-2004, a Biomedical Survey was completed and is available under End User Licence (EUL) (SN 8731) and Special Licence (SL) (SN 5594). Proteomics analyses of blood samples are available under SL SN 9254.

Linked Geographical Data (GN 33497):
A number of geographical variables are available, under more restrictive access conditions, which can be linked to the NCDS EUL and SL access studies.

Linked Administrative Data (GN 33396):
A number of linked administrative datasets are available, under more restrictive access conditions, which can be linked to the NCDS EUL and SL access studies. These include a Deaths dataset (SN 7717) available under SL and the Linked Health Administrative Datasets (SN 8697) available under Secure Access.

Multi-omics Data and Risk Scores Data (GN 33592)
Proteomics analyses were run on the blood samples collected from NCDS participants in 2002-2004 and are available under SL SN 9254. Metabolomics analyses were conducted on respondents of sweep 10 and are available under SL SN 9411.

Additional Sub-Studies (GN 33562):
In addition to the main NCDS sweeps, further studies have also been conducted on a range of subjects such as parent migration, unemployment, behavioural studies and respondent essays. The full list of NCDS studies available from the UK Data Service can be found on the NCDS series access data webpage.

How to access genetic and/or bio-medical sample data from a range of longitudinal surveys:

The National Child Development Deaths Dataset, 1958-2014: Special Licence Access contains data on known deaths among members of the NCDS birth cohort from 1958 to 2013. Information on deaths has been taken from the records maintained by the organisations responsible for the study over the life time of the study: the National Birthday Trust Fund, the National Children’s Bureau (NCB), the Social Statistics Research Unit (SSRU) and the CLS. The information has been gleaned from a variety of sources, including death certificates and other information from the National Health Service Central Register (NHSCR), and from relatives and friends during survey activities and cohort maintenance work by telephone, letter and e-mail. It includes all deaths up to 31st December 2013. In only 6 cases are the date of death unknown. By the end of December 8.7 per cent of the cohort were known to have died.

The National Child Development Study Response and Outcomes Dataset, 1958-2013 (SN 5560) covers other responses and outcomes of the cohort members and should be used alongside this dataset.

For the 3rd edition (July 2018) an updated version of the data was deposited. The new edition includes data on known deaths among members of the National Child Development Study (NCDS) birth cohort up to 2016. The user guide has also been updated.
