States ranking for having a baby in the United States in 2025

Published by A. Minhas, Sep 8, 2025

As of 2025, the District of Columbia was ranked as the best state to have a baby in the United States, followed by Massachusetts and Maine. On the other hand, Alabama was ranked as the worst state to have a baby. The U.S. state rankings for best states to have a baby were created using ** metrics, which included key metrics like fertility clinics per capita, obstetrician-gynecologists availability, prenatal care access, and birth rates. The ** metrics were grouped under four categories — costs, healthcare, baby friendliness, and family friendliness.
