Number and percentage of live births, by month of birth, 1991 to most recent year.

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.

In the United States, the crude birth rate in 1800 was 48.3 live births per thousand people, meaning that 4.8 percent of the population had been born in that year. Between 1815 and 1825 the crude birth rate jumped from 46.5 to 54.7 (possibly due to Florida becoming a part of the US, but this is unclear), but from this point until the Second World War the crude birth rate dropped gradually, reaching 19.2 in 1935. Through the 1940s, 50s and 60s the US experienced it's baby boom, and the birth rate reached 24.1 in 1955, before dropping again until 1980. From the 1980s until today the birth rate's decline has slowed, and is expected to reach twelve in 2020, meaning that just over 1 percent of the population will be born in 2020.

The dataset provides information about the distribution of birthdays across different days, months, and years. It contains records of the number of individuals who were born on a particular day, in a specific month, and in a particular year.

The data can be used to gain insights into patterns and trends in birthday distribution, which may have implications for a range of fields, including demography, public health, and marketing. The dataset may also be of interest to individuals curious about their own birthdays and how they compare to others.

With this dataset, researchers and analysts can explore questions such as: Are certain days, months, or years associated with higher or lower numbers of births? What factors might influence these patterns? What are the implications of these patterns for individuals and society as a whole?

In March 2025, there were around 7.5 percent less births recorded in Germany than the same month a year before. Monthly birth rates were declining year-on-year, except for February and April 2024.

In 2024, October ranked first as the period in which the most babies were born in Spain, with a total of approximately 28,600 births. On the other hand, April registered the lowest number of births, with a total of 24,822 newborns. Spain had an average fertility rate of 1.12 children per woman in 2023, when Murcia and Melilla ranked as the regions of Spain with the highest birth rate.

In 2023, the monthly number of live births in Finland fluctuated between roughly 3,300 and 4,100. The number of births peaked in July, while the month with the lowest number of births was February.

52,210 children were born in Germany in March 2025. This was an increase compared to the month before. Figures fluctuated during the timeline displayed, generally being highest throughout later summer and autumn. Crude birth rates varied among European countries.

India birth rate for 2025 is 16.55, a 1.19% decline from 2024.

Subtracting the crude death rate from the crude birth rate provides the rate of natural increase, which is equal to the rate of population change in the absence of migration.

This statistical release makes available the most recent monthly data on NHS-funded maternity services in England, using data submitted to the Maternity Services Data Set (MSDS). This is the latest report from the newest version of the data set, MSDS.v.2, which has been in place since April 2019. The new data set was a significant change which added support for key policy initiatives such as continuity of carer, as well as increased flexibility through the introduction of new clinical coding. This was a major change, so data quality and coverage initially reduced from the levels seen in earlier publications. MSDS.v.2 data completeness improved over time, and we are looking at ways of supporting further improvements. This publication also includes the National Maternity Dashboard, which can be accessed via the link below. Data derived from SNOMED codes is used in some measures such as those for birthweight, and others will follow in later publications. SNOMED data is also included in some of the published Clinical Quality Improvement Metrics (CQIMs), where rules have been applied to ensure measure rates are calculated only where data quality is high enough. System suppliers are at different stages of development and delivery to trusts. In some cases, this has limited the aspects of data that can be submitted in the MSDS. To help Trusts understand to what extent they met the Clinical Negligence Scheme for Trusts (CNST) Maternity Incentive Scheme (MIS) Data Quality Criteria for Safety Action 2 Year 6, we have been producing a CNST Scorecard Dashboard showing trust performance against this criteria. The final results for the CNST MIS Y6 SA2 assessment, using July 2024 data, are now available in this dashboard, and can be accessed via the link below. This dashboard also includes data for a few non-CNST MSDS data quality priorities and last month we introduced into the dashboard a new data quality measure on birth site code recording, in accordance with Maternity and Neonatal Programme priorities. This new measure will not be assessed as part of the Maternity Incentive Scheme. This month, a small improvement was made to how the CQIMReadmissions metric uses discharge date information and this has resulted in a small change in the data output. As a result, the published CQIMReadmissions figures from this month's publication onwards are not fully comparable to the figures from earlier months. Last month, MSDS metrics published to support Saving Babies Lives Care Bundle (SBLCB) monitoring were updated to align with the contents of SBLCB version 3. As a result some SBLCB version 2 metrics have been removed from the Measures file and others have been renamed to align with SBLCB version 3 naming conventions. More information about the CQIMReadmissions change and the MSDS metrics published to support SBLCB are available in the accompanying Metadata file. The percentages presented in this report are based on rounded figures and therefore may not total to 100%.

The graph illustrates the number of babies born in the United States from 1995 to 2025. The x-axis represents the years, labeled from '95 to '25, while the y-axis shows the annual number of births. Over this 30-year period, birth numbers peaked at 4,316,233 in 2007 and reached a low of 3,596,017 in 2023. The data reveals relatively stable birth rates from 1995 to 2010, with slight fluctuations, followed by a gradual decline starting around 2017. The information is presented in a line graph format, effectively highlighting the long-term downward trend in U.S. birth numbers over the specified timeframe.

TABLE 3.12: Perinatal Statistics Report 2016: Month of Birth: Total Births, Live Births, Mortality Rates, and Maternities, 2016. Published by Health Service Executive. Available under the license cc-by (CC-BY-4.0).Presents the distribution of TOTAL, SINGLETON AND MULTIPLE births for 2016 by Month of Birth. This table outlines data for total births, live births, stillbirths, early neonatal deaths and perinatal mortality rates, as well as presenting the number of maternities. The Perinatal Statistics Report 2016 is a report on national data on Perinatal events in 2016. Information on every birth in the Republic of Ireland is submitted to the National Perinatal Reporting System (NPRS). All births are notified and registered on a standard four part birth notification form (BNF01) which is completed where the birth takes place. Part 3 of this form is sent to the HPO for data entry and validation. The information collected includes data on pregnancy outcomes (with particular reference to perinatal mortality and important aspects of perinatal care), as well as descriptive social and biological characteristics of mothers giving birth.
