The National Hospital Discharge Survey has been conducted annually by the CDC since 1965, but don’t expect any current information on the CDC NHDS website.

Here is an interesting chart using 2005 data.

I had a hospital birth in the South that year... after looking at the chart I feel very lucky I didn't come out with a primary c/s! Eeek.
