CDC MMWR: "Alcohol Consumption During Pregnancy Among Women Aged 18–49 Years"

 In a new Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report (MMWR), CDC scientists analyzed 2021–2024 data from the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) to examine current drinking, binge drinking, and heavy drinking among U.S. pregnant women aged 18–49 years. Key findings from this study include: During 2021–2024, among U.S. pregnant women, 15.2% (more than 1 in 7) reported current drinking, 4.9% (nearly 1 in 20) reported binge drinking, and 2.2% (1 in 50) reported heavy drinking in the past 30 days.
