Births in the U.S. declined again and more pregnant women are going without prenatal care, a CDC report finds.
A report on the declining number of births in the U.S. also shows that the percentage of women who didn't see OB/GYNs while pregnant rose from 2022 to 2023.
The number of women going through pregnancy without prenatal care is growing — even though the overall number of babies born in the U.S. is falling, according to a new report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
The lopsided trend, published Tuesday by the CDC’s National Center for Health Statistics, may reflect, in part, a growing number of women unable to access OB/GYN care after the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade in 2022.

I really think conservatives are simply too stupid to understand indirect effects. Why else would somebody write a comment like this?
Providers don’t realize that, so patients with non viable pregnancies are left to fend for themselves in states with strict laws.
