The number of twins born in the United States reached a new high in 2014, recent birth statistics from the Centers for Disease Control indicate.
In the United States last year, 33.9 twins were born out of every 1,000 births last year, the report said. Though not notably more than 2013 -- which had a twin birth rate of 33.7 -- it was a new record. The most in sheer numbers were in the three most populated states of California, Texas and New York, respectively.
