I ran across a very interesting site this evening that offers some state by state statistics on birth.  The link above will take you to the Texas Peristats page, but you can change the state with a drop-down menu on the left hand side of the page.

Some highlights:

• In an average week in Texas, 7685 babies are born.
• In Texas in 2006, 33.2% of live births were cesarean deliveries.
• In 2006, 1 in 12 babies (8.4% of live births) was low birthweight (< 5.5 lbs.) in Texas.
• In 2006, 1 in 7 babies was born preterm (before 32 weeks), and between 1996 and 2006, the rate of preterm birth increased 17% in Texas.
