  • Description:
    Objectives—This report presents data on trends for prepregnancy diabetes mellitus (PDM), diabetes diagnosed before pregnancy, in mothers giving birth in the United States for 2016–2021, and rates by selected maternal characteristics for 2016 and 2021.

    Methods—Data are from birth certificates and are based on 100% of births registered in the United States for 2016–2021. Descriptive tabulations on trends in PDM rates for 2016–2021 and rates by maternal race and Hispanic origin, age, body mass index, and state of residence for 2016 and 2021 are presented.

    Results—Among mothers giving birth in 2021, the overall PDM rate was 10.9 per 1,000 births, an increase of 27% from 2016 (8.6). In 2021, the PDM rate varied by maternal race and Hispanic origin, ranging from a low of 8.7 for White non-Hispanic mothers to a high of 28.6 for American Indian or Alaska Native non-Hispanic mothers. The PDM rate rose with increasing maternal age and prepregnancy body mass index. By state in 2021, the PDM rate was lower than 9.0 in four states (Wyoming [6.3], Hawaii [7.7], Utah [8.0], and Colorado [8.9]) and was 15.0 or higher in three states (Tennessee [15.2], Vermont [15.6], and New Mexico [22.3]).
